Side Skirts - OEM or ??
Yes, i read the FAQ and found the "aero fitment thread" which is really old, the photos that i assume once were in there aren't there anymore. It's kinda useless.
so, sideskirts right?
My main question is, does nobody make a replica OEM 97+ style sideskirt?? ^^pictured above^^ (or are those not OEM?) if no, why not? From what i can tell it's either OEM (if you can find a set) or you have to go with something chunkier like these:
^^ these are both ebay sideskirts i believe, and i'm sorta ok with them, except for that HIDEOUS gap under the door. is there a good way to fill that in?? it's especially noticable on a white car, which I have

Heres a better shot of what I can only assume is genuine OEM >> the fitment I want:
So, yeah. I guess I'm just asking you guys what are my options? SOL? have to settle for the ebay stuff? I can't find OEM for sale in the classifieds or anywhere on the internet. Not sure I'd like the price when/if I do either.
Sorry, I've been out of the SC game for a long time.

that gap is for the factory 97+ piece that comes with the oem kit. I think you can find those pieces used or maybe even new from the dealer still. The AC (and replica) kit is a good compromise between the factory 97+ oem kit and vertex-style agressive kit.
edit: Nevermind about what i said regarding the gap. I noticed what you were referring to in those pics. just didn't think of that space as an abnormally large gap.

Are you saying there's a trim piece for the lower potion of the door? And thats why some cars look like they have a massive gap down there cuz they are missing it? such as :
BTW to the owners of these cars I love your rides I'm not "hating" just explaining what I see.

As mentioned above the AC Shine APT kit is a good fit and very durable. See the kit on my 99SC400.

Looking good, my dude!
I honestly never knew about this trim piece. I used to own an sc300 so I'm not entirely new.
kinda frustrated by this though. just another thing for my OCD to obsess about and eventually pay for

There are held on quite securely with the oem clips and no they will not snap in half as they have a metal strip in the back. I have a pair I can snap pics of next time I go to my storage cage.
