yea they are rs skirts
I've had those before on my coupe, but the sides woulnd't fit perfect so i kinda had to modify 'em to fit.
i would rather get oem one over those

Rep Power: 273 The inner fender walls have a thin black outline on the edges, it's weird. At first I thought it was the side skirt being too long, but no, it looks like decal or painted or something, I don't get it. Some kinda intended optical illusion?
its a black lining on teh wheel well, sometimes people have it on their cars, its kinda like on the old cars when people would use that crhome or gold lining, on in this case its black.

These are OEM sides:
The ones he posted above are RS sides which are made for a sedan.

But I still don't see the difference between the RS sides and the OEM ones, if you're not going for anything wild and just want clean then I highly recommend OEM over anything. You'll be much happier in the end, the quality is worth the money.
^^^ the difference is subtle..... the rs is just a straight side skirt... but the oem buckles down a lil bit towards the rear of the car so that it matches up with the rear lip
rs lip.... Straight and no curves
oem, look towards the end it has a lil body line and buckles down just a little bit so that it matches the rear lip
