Side skirts.. FINALLY! I finally got RS side skirts for my car... It took me forever cos I never have money, but I was able to find them on PCPonline for pretty cheap. When I first brought them home, they fit pretty good.. or at least I thought. I dropped it off for paint, and when I tried putting them on it was like they were too short for the length of my car. How could they possibly have shrunk?! Well, anyways, I drilled it, double-sided taped it, and sawed it as best I could.. :shrug: http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid.../mycar_001.jpg http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid.../mycar_002.jpg |
looks good. |
looks good but paint the front lip too. |
If the front lip isn't carbon fiber, I'de paint that, but other than that, it looks really good |
my front lip is CF... but I think I'm gonna paint it anyways. |
Na... I'd say paint your sideskirt black if anything. Keep the front lip as is. If you paint your front lip then your wheels will stick out like a sore thumb. |
Looks koo. |
looks real good! |
looking good man yea those RS kits are made for sedans , so the side are a little short for coupes (i've had them for a little bit) U gonna paint ur CF lip! heck no man! sell it and buy a different lip or something (prefer oem) |
Hey girl, I would paint the side skirts black. That is my opinion tho. Looks nice tho and keep up the good work. |
hmm.. thanks for all the compliments... but I'm not gonna paint them black right after i got them painted satin silver. ;) |

they are less flexable after painting...eventually they will carck. But don't worry, I have a thread on how to fix cracks. :) |

Btw, the car looks awsome! did u do the side skirt install yourself?? |
Leave your car the way it is, it looks so goddam sexy. Painted skirts and lip body colour. cf front lip. even if it wasnt cf and was just flat black, i'd leave it. |

He been working autobody and paint for eons...looked pretty sweet too when he was done. I would not paint the Lip, skirts or tail black, it will take away from the look of the car and also make it look like its raised... |
