#24568, "Woo HOoo! I finally got my side skirts."




          

I've been looking for skirts for about a year and a half. I wanted 97+ and I'm sure you all know how hard they are to come by. Everytime, I would see a set they would get snatched up!(damn you other RS owners emoji ) I got them for $140 with all 6 pieces and I found them local too. Didn't have to pay for shipping.

Here's my question, I went to the body shop that painted my door handle after it broke. He did a MUCH better job of matching the paint than the first guy who painted my handles. I'm very happy with how it came out. He quoted me $175 to paint the skirts and caps if I out them on myself. He also said he would touch up the bottom of my front bumper too. Is that a good price?

Hmmmm.... that price seems about right. Try $225 installed or something. I didn't do the doorcaps but I think they would be a little hard.

Ya doorcaps are hard to install since you have to drill in the exact right places and buy clips etc. Just do it without the door caps and it will be a lot easier. Try to pay them to install the skirts because it may be hard for you to drill in the right spots.

Actually have you seen 2gnt members cars without the door caps? It looks much more aggressive and a lot of people like it more without the door caps.

Say wha?


Looks more after-market IMO.


I should have new pictures soon. The side skirts look good with or without caps.
