Put the Taurus skirts on,

[delphini]

The Taurus skirts are 5.25" tall (not including the flange that has the screw holes in it. Now keep in mind, that's also not straight up and down. The skirts wrap under the body around the rocker panel. Cabrio rockers don't swoop as far under the body as the standard rockers do.

You are correct ..they will NOT fit. Thew measurement on cabrios from the bottom of the sides to just above the side trim is over 8" :( , thanks for the numbers Anderson.

Especially me? Why, because someone found a way to get good looking side skirts for cheap? Where is it written that all the parts you put on your car have to cost hundreds of dollars and be made specifically for BMW's? I don't understand this rationale at all. I'm sorry we can't all affored M-Tech I kits. And don't feed me the "OMFG Ford parts on a BMW" line. They're molded pieces of urethane that happen to fit the E30. If they came from a 92-95 Audi, I'll bet you anything not a single person would say a word. There almost isn't a single side skirt for the E30 that I like, aside from OEM BMW parts that are either NLA or way too fucking overpriced. I love the way these look, and if that depresses you, I don't know what to tell you.

Now I can't wait to get them installed. I'm going to get a huge windshield banner made that says "BODY KIT BY FORD".

You're the man. I like the way you think. Couldn't have agreed any more.

In my eyes I see a lot of folks here jumping on the bandwagon of "Bash on FORD"...yes they are crap but I think most people already know that. For those who don't, they needn't to be bothered. Let them be.

P.S. Not one of your posts that I have read did I think otherwise.

They won't fit. Cabrio rockers are much taller than the sedan.

SO just for the record how tall are these TAURUS skirts?
I believe i had asked someone earlier , or maybe on another forum but was just ignored..... might you please tell me Mr. Anderson ?? thank you

Nope stripes/stickers are not really my cup of tea. Only stickers I had on my honda where one of the car club I belonged to, I had "Wheel Whore" on my quarter windows for a few months, and then before I did the auto--> 5-speed but had just installed the turbo kit I had a custom made sticker that said: "yes, its an automatic," with a frowny face.

dude you are going to have the coolest bronzit when you mount the rear apron... good job :up:

Anyone put these on a convertible yet?

Oh and a little update, i went with some new brackets to mount he skirts, had a close call the other day on the highway, the pass side came loose. The skirts are now screwed in securely.

I have a rear valence on the way, so I'm definitely going to have to get these.

[Aerton]

I don't think that is a good idea, then it would look like my car (- the 4x4 suspension) and I want to paint the bottom or skirts in red. Have a look at mi sig.

I really want to give this a shot if I ever make it out to the junk yard. I wonder how they would look in black on my red car if I also paint the trunk spoiler black....hmmmm

edit : probably would look better red... and i would also need a rear valence to complete the look
