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!

Im happy we got a nice even flow line, even though it was a Seibon part.

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
