Angrybumblebee carbon side skirts
So cause he doesnt have a camera I snapped some pictures while he was at work. I should have taken these when I finished installing them but we were in a rush and whatever. His car is dirty as hell but doesnt really matter, these came out filthy!

Don't like CF.

Looks good on Black as blends and matches nicely.

One problem money, The side vents can be bought in CF but very expensive.

Sorry, but I believe you need those to complete the look from the side.

Bullet proof has aggressive front if you are into that.

I'm not a fan of the CF sides personally....but then again it does look good on bb and ti gray...definitely would help with that hood (which style did you get?) and a front lip

Pretty good fit. I had to do some creative guessing and use some bradvision when drilling holes. But I do that daily on airplanes

I couldnt install them any higher without causing the bottom to be at a 45 degree angle. Which would look GAY. What you get for a polyester made part that has been deformed from the time they layed up the part. Hey its a body kit, do best you can.

sorry,

are these real seibon parts?

i must have confused something here..

i went with the bottom of the skirt was level.. from the bottom of the skirt..

and really the joke was i have the same skirts.. and they fit just fine.

Ask angry if they are true seibon but I believe they are?

I pushed these as high as we could without making them look terabad. it might not sit 100% true MS style but it still does look good.

Always leave it to swoope to be a **** block
