New Skirts

Hi, Installed new skirts, paint does not match 100% but close enough IMO.

What do you guys think?

Sorry...You need a repaint. These actually add bulk to the rocker panel, and that added to the off-color, make them stand out too much, rather than blend in like they belong there.

I like them!
They are subtle enough to show only for those who know Boxsters.

I like the skirts, makes the car look lower. Without them and the rockers look unfinished. Good job. I found mine on EBay, already painted for $180.

Franco -
The side skirts look great! I added the same ones to my Boxster last spring, and I thought it was a huge upgrade.
