Side Skirts Discontinued

Just got an email this morning stating that my back order for the side skirts has been cancelled as the part has been discontinued. Good news is I plan on selling the car and totally forgot about this order. Sad though cause I think this is a great add on for this chassis.

Are you talking about the black stickers or the actual side skirt? I have yet to see another car with the actual sides kirts and I think they look great in conjunction with the front lip

Skirts. The stickers were never unavailable from what I recall.

Gotcha. The skirts were a pita to install since they didn't come with screws and they came primered when they were supposed to be satin black. Probably has something to do with them being discontinued

I think they look great especially colour coded to highlight them. I initially left them black, well the Dealer hadn't bothered to colour code any of the aero kit, and whilst the front and rear spoiler/difuser are solid black material the side splitters are literally supplied primed with black paint thinly! it's white underneath you can see it at the edges showing through and I tried to polish a scuff mark out and with the merest effort had struck through the primer coating. Upside as I mentioned its looks a lot better colour coded with or without decals. Protects the decals from peeling underneath and I think makes the car look lower than without them especially if decals are applied

Just an update, the sills arrived at Sun and Brian shipped out my set today. He has 3-4 sets left for those that are interested. Just tell him Eric from the forum sent you...... I will post pictures when they are on the car. It has been a long pain in the ass wait and I am sure they were not worth it but I now have them

Price....give Brian @ Sun Motorcars a call

Here are a couple of quick pics of them on...car is quite dirty. They are not painted since my splitter and rear diffuser are matte black. 7 month wait...not sure they were worth it
