Good to hear infinirx. Are you going to put the front on first without the sides or back and give us a picture of how the RX would look with just the front bar and OEM sides

Here are the pictures with just the front and rear lips with no skirt on OEM wheels that I posted maybe 2 years ago.
I'll have updated pictures within 2-3 weeks when all the other parts are on

Thanks Veleno. So that is the WALD kit yeah? It actually works out okay from the looks of it. It's not as bad as I thought it was going to look without the side skirts.

I've since done some changes and should have updated pictures posted up in 2-3 weeks.

Car looks good with the side skirts on. Interestingly the side skirts almost have the same design and shape as the stock ones, so one could feasibly paint it to match in. Car looks good.

^^ too much work. Just get the skirts and paint those.
The plastic on OEM pieces for all cars are a ***** to work with, and even if done properly, there is always the risk of it peeling off with time. A lot of the VW guys do this on their oem valence covers to paint match and they never last... Same kind of material here, that is used on the RX. Not to mention the amount you're gonna spend to lay paint on an OEM piece.
Whereas the aftermarket skirt will always look better since it sits lower to match the low slung profile of the lips.
