OEM style side skirts.

Hey guys. Was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with buying side skirt replicas(or front/rear) like these? http://cgi.ebay.ca/HONDA-CIVIC-SIDE-...ht_1165wt_1139

I really wanna get the aero style side skirts but I am clueless as to where to look.(I live in Canada so yeah) Anyways any help would be greatly appreciated. Figured with this price, I'd be able to save more even if I get them both painted for about 150 bucks. Thanks again!

Re: OEM style side skirts.

In my experience you get what you pay for. I ended up paying more money because I cheaped out the first time. The side ones did not sit correctly, they had a couple of gaps because they don't bring the side metal mounting thingy. And they broke beacuse my foot use to hit those gaps everytime I got out. The front and rear were fine with a little fitment issues. The only reason I don't tell you to buy oem is because the side aero are expensive but they are painted. If it was me I would buy the oem ones but that's just me and the rear aero look awesome.

Edit: you can get then from handa-accessories.com but don't know if they ship to Canada.

Yeah mine ran me about 250$ painted for both sides. they were a different color so i had to repaint them. They did come with everything except the template for marking. It's not necessary though, but like SpeedDownZone said, get the mounting brackets with the kit.

Re: OEM style side skirts.

Thanks for the reply guys. Kinda depressing to read but I guess buying the oem ones or hunting for the real aero sides are the only ways to go. I live in Vancouver, Muirsy.
