OEM sideskirts

For those with OEM sideskirts how low do they go? I want to get a set of them to go with the Mugen style lip I'm getting but am not sure if I will clear speedbumps with them. Do they go any lower than the jackpoints on the side of the car, and if so how much lower. Any help is appreciated.

It sits a bit lower, but not much. Maybe less than an inch. I can check later.

It's about 1 inch lower in the middle, maybe less. It's dark so I had to just feel it.

awesome, thanks for the info.

also, how do they attach? On older model civics/integras you could remove the factory side but it's not so on ours.

You first stick on an aluminum sill with double sided tape. Let it cure overnight. Then the skirt presses down and sits on it. There are bracket clamps on the bottom, and a screw on the side.
