46462, Those with aftermarket skirts Posted by DSMRoadster, May-01-03 10:30 PM
I picked up my new Street Weapon Drift side skirts yesterday...thanks Killhonda666. They look awesome. It's fiberglass and I do have a little fitment problems. I was wondering how many of you with fiberglass skirts had fitment problems and how did you come about fixing it? There's like little gaps by the corner of the doors. I was thinking of just screwing the ends into the wheel well. How did some of you guys secure your side skirts and what did you use? By the way it costs me 250 bucks to get bumper fix and repainted and both skirts painted.

when i got mine they were a nightmare.... had to cut them and re fiberglass them to make them fit. I screwed them on to fit them and then used a special adheasive to make sure they stay on.....

Had the body shop do mine... they said they didn't have to do much at all to make them fit. They rivited them on, and used an adhesive in some places... which is losing its adhesiveness :)

I was lucky. I got mine for 80 bux. They are kombat sideskirts and I got them used from a guy selling them off DSMtrader. At first, he was charging a 100 but when he learned I was with 2GNT, he gave me a discount cuz he was also lurking around t2GNT. Best part was that it fit just fine since it was already on a car before, plus its black already. All I needed to do was just drill some holes in the body and screw the sideskirts on. Just had to buy a drill bit to drill into the body.
