      Took the pic over a year ago, had to lighten it a lot to see the skirts, and mostly just shitty pic with point and shoot and enough PP to kill a small army. 8)

        Okay, I have looked through every thread I can dig up, plus on other sites, and don't see any pic's of these skirts on a diving board car. Would consider this mod, but not sure how it would look on a car without a rear valance and a big front valance. I have an 86 with a stock rear and a front sport lip. Does anyone have any pics of these on a db car?

                  Hey, that's looking pretty good. Some appear to stick out pretty far, and look almost ballonish, as someone mentioned earlier, and don't seem to match the car very well. This one looks pretty flush. Any more pics??

                      Here's my Sable skirts, yep, I'm not spending $200+ for OEM...



                      That car is nice! Mines red too but not in that good of shape!
                      I'm still torn between the sable or taurus skirts.

                        Seems like this is either a hit or miss. I mean some cars look good with them and some dont. The one's where the skirt sit in more looks clean. Any tips on where to mount them to get it flush with the body? I just dont like where it sticks out.

                            this is just a plastic bumper car with a Rieger replica front lip...they sell those at Abrahamotorsport or somthing like that.

                                Its a eurostyle fiberglass replica lip.. the abs ones are too brittle IMO. I don't think eurostyle makes them any more though.
