Should I Get Side Skirts? If So, Which, Where?
My base RS model didn't come with the standard side skirts and well I think it would help improve my car's overall image.
I dunno I think it looks kinda naked with out it and well I thought perhaps I can find some stock ones for cheap because I will be repainting the car anyway and may as well include them in before I do. Maybe I should post a pic of my car and you guys can decide? What I'm looking for is something simple and not excessive and so I thought the stock ones would be perfect. But I dunno where to look and how much to expect to pay? I will try my local junk yard, but their prices seem on the high side...

Re: Should I Get Side Skirts? If So, Which, Where?
I would go for the whole body kit, if it is going to be for show, IMO.
Are these on the gs models too, or only gst/gsx. Check dsmtrader, and the 2gnt For Sale section and find someone that is parting out the car.

Is that your car???
Well i cant really see the side skirt it is too dark and too far away. You can always leave the stock rear bumper, get aftermarket skirts. But hey its your car. I like these... http://www.visracing.com/catalog/pro...39354ee8f930e6

Hehe yeah I don't have any thats why you shouldn't be able to see any. But yeah thats my car and um yeah I seen those side skirts before, too excessive for my taste. What I'm going for is a clean silky sexy look.  Chavez408, Like yeah I did lower it... bought the Tein S-Tech's and I now realize I should of went with the H&R due to their like the only ones that lower the front more than the rear (most like these lower it the same length). But also I was shooting that pic from the ground so thats not exactly how it looks if you were to be beside it.

I don't like the amount of eclipses that have the blitz kit on it. There are way too many and it is playing the kit out. Thats why I have the quwhees kit. You don't see too many cars with that now do you?

Re: Should I Get Side Skirts? If So, Which, Where?
yeah... i partially agree with you duckydsp, that's why for the front bumper i went with the Strada F1 kit. give it a different and unique look.

Wow I think I'll have to get me one of 'em.  I just gotta find where I can get a good combo deal now. Also is fiberglass safe to mold? When the kit goes on the car I'd surely like to get it molded on for that clean look. And one last thing, how durable is fiberglass anyway? I see a bunch of Civics and Tegs with crappy kits and their color is run down and scratched up, just look weak...
