28979, Thinking of purchasing 95 Skirts and Caps....
Posted by Logic3, Aug-15-02 05:04 PM




I really like the way the 95-96 skirts look on the 97+ eclipses.... I am also in a postion to purchase some 95 skirts with caps for $55! What do you guys think? Should I hold out for 97+ or go with the 95's? I think it looks pretty sick personally. Plus I don't have a spoiler so I think this would look very clean.... Honest opinions and input appreciated. Thanks.

Go for it, IMO the 95-96 skirts are a more clean, aerodynamic look, and leaving the caps off makes it look like an aftermarket kit. I also think the 97-99 skirts make the car look pregnant and bloated. But, to each their own.

If you like it, and you're getting a great deal, then what are you waiting for? Get them.

I personally don't like the 95-96 skirts. But like ^^ said "to each his own"

BUY THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 55 bucks is dirt cheep! Our cars with side skirts look a billion times better than without. Whether they are 95-96, 97-99 or Talon skirts.

Hey Shawn! I haven't talked to you in a while man. Hows it been? I snagged the skirt today :) Now I gotta get some money to put towards paint. There is a shop in Versaills, KY that will paint my mirror, handels, and skirts/caps for $200! Thats pretty cheap from what I've seen. First time customer discount or something....

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I think it will look very clean. And I agree with Eclipzegamer...I think the 95-96 look much more areodynamic. Plus $55 is to good of a deal to pass up!

Shawn, we need to get together sometime before school starts and we both get busy.
