Got the skirts on

[bmwsone01]

Just a pic of the IS skirts painted and installed and I am so glad that i did not go with the taurus skirts, thanks KILAWIN :)

Looks great! IMHO, the skirts make 4-doors look "right". Without skirts, the 4-doors tend to look elongated compared to the coupes.

That looks amazing. Well done!

NOICE!!!!
Mine are still leaning against the wall. How did you mount them?

Drive your ass down here and help me!!!

[Kilawin]

Looks great. Seeing it now I would continue with what you had planned for it. ;)

other plan is a good one too, since you already have the touring. hmmm decisions decisions

i was going to try and get a rep. mtech II kit for my 318...but the 505 got hit, so that has been postponed :(
nothing like fresh ds, eh??

looks great! how did you mount them?

[Simon S]

fuck yeah

[omar85]

how much did they cost after paint if you dont mind telling?

[thedeal]

I love it, they look great, and like robrez said, they really finish a four door. Can't wait to mount mine.

A few questions: A) Any tips or tricks to mounting them? I know the gist of it, just looking for any pointers. B) Once they are mounted, how easy is it to remove them? I am planning on mounting them first, then getting them body matched as to not fuck up my paint mounting them. C) Like Omar asked, how much did it run you to paint them?

Thanks

Thanks to all of the compliments
@robrez: yes. the skirts make a big difference in the appearance of the sedan

@Kilawin: still contemplating on what to do...ARGH!

@everyone else:
1) got the skirts from ZM Bluedevil for $200 shipped, with ALL mounting tabs (excellent condition)
2) installed by using 3m auto body tape and cutting off the mounting tabs. i did not want to put any holes on the car. only holes drilled/mounted was at the inner fender area. its amazing how strong it holds!!!
3) amount to paint $200, sanded, filled where some areas needed filling (not too much at all), flexed primered and painted/cleared.

What do you mean you cut off the mounting tabs?

[FL318is]

On the inside of the skirts there are receptacles for the hardware.

My question then is what 3M did you use, where did you apply it and do you think it will stand up against the elements?

In FL it has a tendency to flood streets. Not sure the 3m will hold.

I hate 4 doors, but your car looks great! Good job :up:
