      Any ideas on how to make the center section mount stronger so any/all sags are taken care of?

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

        Here's my honest opinion on white cars and this side skirt. You can't half ass on the paint, but at the same time the front and rear valence should be something that matches it or else it'll look like doodoo. If the piece doesn't flow with the car it doesn't matter what color it is it's still going to be UGLY.

        I do really like the last one of the alpine white. It matches the car very nicely.

            Good god man, stock Taurus skirts are one thing, but come on...

            The Taurus SHO has a Yamaha engine in it. they are supposed to be pretty reliable cars. more so than the ford engine

                          That looks really bad with the bottom of your rear valance painted body color.

                                No shit at all. The existence of a Yamaha motor in a Ford car is absolutely true.
