New Skirts

Franco:

The additional pics are very, very nice. Shows that close attention to detail with respect to fitting and installation.

Did you install them yourself or did the body shop do it after you prepped them?

Great job!

Regards, Maurice.

Hi Maurice,

Yes I installed them myself first and got them painted on the car at the body shop.

Regards, Franco

Thanks

The only problem with skirting is that it makes 17" wheels look even smaller.

I have fiberglass skirting not my first choice but the factory polyurethane versions do not come in the 996 GT3 MK2 style for the Boxster. And man they were not cheap to put on.
The skirting was only $200 or so but getting them painted cost me at least $500.
But that was when the economy was booming from dudes putting mods on their EZ-Credit cards.

Wow...that's a lot to pay for painting the skirts. I got my OEM Aerokit 1 skirts for $150 and then had em painted for $250 at a good shop here in NNJ. Perfect paint match...

911 skirts do not fit , used boxster skirts are much harder to come by .
