Yeah those are L-Tuned side skirts. They look weird in these pics because the ground was sunken right underneath the middle of the car. I got my wheels yesterday, just waiting for the tires. I'll post new pics asap

Thanks. I'd like to see it a little lower too, but I worry about the roads here in Buffalo. I don't drive it in the winter, but the roads suck year round. I've been toying with the idea of tints for the a little while now. I might go real light all the way around.

I bought mine through Lextasy.com Whatever you do, don't buy the cheap $12 versions on ebay. They leak almost immediately and turn yellow (I had them for about 6 months). Looks like ***! Spend the $35-45 and get them done right. Here's a link to their site:

Hey sorry I didn't see your post before I said that, Just make sure you seal them properly if they don't have a good gasket around it.
