Hey, Just curious if you guys think my car would look weird with just the oem sideskirts and stock front and back bumpers? It'll be lowered with eibach sportlines if that makes a difference, I can get a really good deal on the oem sideskirts but im not gonna get em if it'll look bad. Anyone got pix of a car with just the sides?

thanx in advance
cheers

i dont think itll look good at all, the mid section of your car will look lower and itll just look wrong

just get them and don't install them until you get something for the front and rear. it's hard to pass up a good deal.

The OEM side skirts arent really all that big and i dont think would give the appearance of the mid section being drastically lower. If you can get a good deal on them, I say do it! However, if you are planning to go with front and rear bumpers that really are lower than stock, I dont know if I would recommend that you buy the side skirts b/c they would look out of proportion w/ the rest of the car. But if you are just planning on a lip kit pieces for the front and rear later on, definately go for it!

well guys thanx for the input, Im think im gonna take jgrow44's advice and buy it now and just not put it on till I get a front lip later. Im getting the side skirts for $200 Canadian so that'll only be like 140 US, plus the guy lives near me, so no shipping or anything

Hell no.

For the winter I took off my side skirts and the front bumper BUT left the real bumper on from my body kit and it looked retarded.

When a section of your car looks lower then other parts it looks rediculous.

Yeah the sides will be lower than the rest of the car and look so ghetto.

buy the sides and dont put them on until you have the front and rear lips situated to porportional size...

i'd hold out and get a full kit, but buy the oem sideskirts and sell em, make some money towards a full kit.. i'm always thinkin like a con artist. ha.

i think it will look fine. the middle is too high anyway. plus the 6thgens had sideskirts from the factory, i dunno why honda took it off in the first place.
