Default Side skirt extensions

CL,

First off, I know this is a replica side skirt, but in IL Toms carbon fiber side skirt extensions is not a good investment for a car that is driven year round. That being said, have any of you have any experience with these I found on EBay? Please see the link below. I am also planning to paint them body color.

Matt

I bought them already they are at the wrap shop getting carbon fiber wrapped . All i can say is that they are the good length and they are not round at the bottom they stop flat. Form is not perfect either but once sanded a little they come pretty even. Worth the price imo

Have the front splitters installed for 2 years from same material/seller. And it did not wave. What's with that anyway. Everybody talk about plastic waving. Never saw that

Im surprised no one has bought these yet. I like the way they flare up at the end. About the same price as Toms.. They are Lexon/Questpower side splitters.

I love the Tom's had a guy reach out to me on here named named Nelson Santiago who makes Tom's reps. Sent a pic and they look great.

Anyone dealt with this guy before I send him a wad of cash (meaning paypal)

Haha, ray of sunshine, pun intended? Yeah in the end it's 130 bucks and it can be painted worse case scenario. Or I could buy one every year for 6 more years and it would cost around the same as one of those CF/FG ones that pretty much crack when you look at them.
