The MS side skirts are lower than the air dam... not by much though. Check out Omicron's car.

I'm a fan of the stock appearance package and MS sideskirts also :p ... but what ever floats your boat - do something because YOU like it, not for other people

i think this is what you're talking about geng. except this guy has the ms spoiler, i think it would look great with the stock spoiler. but overall, this car looks great, nothing wrong with the ms front kit, it looks real nice in black. i too do not like the ms side skirts and rear kit. to each his own though.

My taste seems to change with the weather...

Plain jane

MS Front + MS Sides + appearance rear triangles

MS Front + MS Sides + MS rear

Appearance package

INGS+ 1 package

NEW ADDITION...

LEG Motorsports lip + appearance package

Good thing I don't have an 8 yet... doesn't seem like I'll ever decide.

I'd suggest the front splash guards to go along with the side aero flares on a MS front bumper without skirts. It helps negate the visual difference in the height of the nose versus the sides.

I'm waiting for my front bumper to now. Have clear corners and front splash guards in hand now, just waiting for it all to be here so I can get it done in one shabang.

I do like the MS spoiler/wing also, but I think I'll wait to see more aftermarket pieces on that. Since it's not such a form fitted piece, like the nose, I'd be more comfortable saving a few hundred bucks on aftermarket.

Well, it's not exactly how I thought it would look, but I still like the effect. Here's a few of the pics I hastily took today after polishing the car. Hopefully I'll get some better weather this week so I can take better pictures.

Hopefully this will help you decide if it's what you want.
