Sideskirts

[XR2002]

Well I am currently in a little bind. I really did not want to mold sideskirts onto my car, so are there any other options or sides available that would look ok with Aero front and rear besides the kam and millenium? Would the 99-00 razzi ones that bolt underneath look stupid. I am just iffy about permantly placing the sideskirts on there :/

I would say that the choice of sideskirts looking okay is up to you. Some people will like different things but go ahead ask people to photochop some things for ya with your front and get an idea. Post some pics up in the Vid/Pics section and ask for bodykit chops..... Also I dont recommend molding anything if your car is more then a show car....... Especially if you will ever, ever drive it in the winter again..
PS My car should be here thursday or saturday without the fenders or front on, or seats installed and probably without rims, but I ll be getting the seats done in a week or 2 tops, and rims hopefully wednesday night..... Front end and fenders will be about a month or so.

kk One more question though. Would ALL fiberglass sideskirts need molded? That is the impression I was given by James but I am just making sure.

All sideskirts just look better molded, that's all. They look like they are a part of the car, rather than an add on, but they can look good without being molded.

The issue isnt if they look good- naturally they look better molded. The issue is fit and finish. Basically some kits just dont fit worth a damn which leaves gaps and stuff. That's why ArmyCat ordered different sides ( I believe it was the street weapon sides that were messed up). All kits except the millenium will work fine without molding. The Roush kit is cheap at the moment and they may even have your color pre-painted (as in you wont need to paint it) and its urethane, not fiberglass and will fit great. The other quality companies will most likely be fine too though- Wings West, Razzi (I think it would look like crap with razzi though), and Kaminari should all fit fine without molding. If the part is warped or something send it back- though chances are very good that everything will be fine.



ooops- sorry, nevermind. I highly doubt Roush will have your color given what you have. These kits were made in 99 and they didnt even have spruce green when I called last week.

PuckPuck has a good buy going on for the Visteon kit right now. It's sufficiently low-key, for my tastes...

Yea molding looks good BUT if you drive your car daily DONT mold! Molding stuff is not made for everyday use like outside in the elements! Also if you mess up a sideskirt with molding it will be way more expensive to fix etc. But it does look better :)

Roush wont have his color, it's a 01/02 color and they didn't put kits on 01/02 Cougars.
