well success was short lived tonight..... We figured out all of the shipment issues and did everything we could possibly come up with. The skirt fits relatively well as far as after market skirts go. Some problems with the skirt are the missing tabs up front and about 1/4 too short. We equate this to the company not allowing for a consistent measure of shrink. These are plastic reinforced fiberglass. The fiberglass was sprayed not hand laid which doesn't allow for consistency.

Now to the good stuff, we reheated the skirt and flexed it back into more of an L shape like the original this helped with the install a lot. The skirt was able to sit nicer and was not able to flex down like it wanted to before. Everything looked good accept for the front of the skirt, I don't care what duraflex says, we needed to use a bracket. There was just no other way around it. The bracket I am up with uses the existing fender bolts SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DRILLING into your car. What the bracket does is run along the inside of the skirt and then twists into the wheel well. From inside the wheel well the skirt needed a screw in order to close the 1/8 inch gap. What we used was some fender screws that we picked up from oreily’s. What this means is if you choose you will need to put the skirt on and have ONE screw showing inside each of your wheel wells. The rest of the skirt, like any other skirt can be double sided taped in the door well and use the existing clips in the rear. Rudy did everything in his power while driving to get this skirt to come flying off and he was yet to do so. It was the worst ride of my life...

Now for the bad news, everything worked and looked great so we started measuring the rest of the sets and checking for damage. This is where it went wrong. Almost every set we opened had minor to pretty extensive damage. The damage that was on each set had to have happened during shipping because it was fresh not painted black. In other words they were not shipped out like this or they would have had the primmer on them. Some of the skirts can be fixed with some minor body work, some will cost more to fix then the skirts themselves are worth. A shop would probably fix this with the same 3m adhesive they use to fix cracked bumpers, the stuff works and it would be an excellent fix, but why put the extra money into a process that should not have been needed in the first place.

I realize some of you still think the refund is a lost cause and still want your skirts. I will ship to anyone that still wants them, and I will also make bracket for anyone who wants them, by accepting the skirt you forfeit any chance of a refund. Why is this? Well because we now have a claim open with the shipping company. These skirts were insured for 10k and frankly its bitter sweet news, we figure out a way to make these work, and now most are still junk or need work. I will go through all the sets and put together the best pairs. Someone from the shipping company will come out next week assess the damage and send out a check. Refunds will go accordingly. We will ship the skirts back to Dan for those who want refunds, he will send a refund. He seems to be coming around now that the problem isn't so much in his hands anymore. This skirts with extensive damage are just as useless to him as they are to me and you.


Last but not least it was too late to have pictures taken by the time we were done. We didn’t want to make it look like we were hiding anything with the dark, so I will post what we have now. We will be taking a video of us fitting a set later this weekend and sending it through PM to everyone on the groupbuy. Your decision can be made after that. I always feel like I am leaving you guys hanging but it is the best we have got right now.


I can not post Dans information on here you all know that, but these are what the stickers said that were on the side skirt packages.
