I'm going to be moulding these skirts along with the bumpers arches etc shortly and I was wondering if people would prefer them in 2 piece originals or as a 1 piece set?

With the 1 piece I could keep the joining lines to make them look original?

I was also thinking along the same lines with the jacking covers but leaving a gap underneath just incase you do need to jack your car up on the sill?

I will be moulding the covers seperate as well to add to the parts list

Just after a few of your thoughts really

1 piece so people dont rip others off by saying they are originals when they sell them on at a later date

The only thing I've said is one piece fibreglass ones can already be purchased but if people can they tend to get original simply because I think they look better! Sticking to the two piece idea Chris

One piece would be a lot better Chris, lost mine twice with deep puddles! and don't put
jacking covers on them, had a set nicked whilst it was on trailer at motorway services.

Where can these be bought from matey?

Just done a quick search and nothing much has turned up, just a couple of dodgy looking sites

Chris that website made lol quite a lot, pinched a quote which is dribble ...

All Fibreglass parts are made from over 4 layers of Fibreglass and they are machine tested for any imperfections. Over 95% of our Fiberglass parts are a direct fit but some may need modifications.

Sean, they look dredfull!! mine will look like geniune items

Hi Possy, i'll give you a txt as soon as i have measured them up to get some rough workings in carbon fibre.

Youd be suprised how many cars that crop up with them on However i know your fitment would be spot on and look miles better than those! I just cant help but think in one piece they dont look as gm as the original ones! It looks like its just me but i guess we all have our preferences!
