never mind saw you posted in that thread already

ones astro was selling are avalible from miatasport in adelaide
or SSV in sydney

expect to pay around 365 to 390 in grey primer
I actually sliced mine at the join in the front of the door

they fit like a OEM style side skirt
makes a heap of difference

Your not undoing screws in the rear wheel arch to get the front quater panel off!
and as a result I could flush fit them and mould them onto the car!

edit:
FWIW i like the shape astro had (I am biased though!)
ours are straighter along the bottom ie the rocker doesnt come up as high in the middle and just gives it a bit of lower stance though the ones pictured above on steves car give it more of a california street racer look as all the kits over there have high centre rockers!

food for thought thats all

I'm pretty sure the ones astro had arent available from here in adelaide.
i took a mold off those though and made another set and look sweet!

Sorry ajay i think i'm hoarding all the skirts :mrgreen: ..

i have three sets.. none on my car atm though.. I cant decide which ones to wear :?

I am going to be selling at least one set... i just havent been bothered to sort out the freight for them if they go interstate...

EDIT - Ajay i also have a heap of pics of the ones like astros on my car i'll post later if you like.

i thought it was steves car.. mainly because of all the autoglym in the background.. :) i remember when it had MAZDA down the side..

for some reason i just fell in love with this kit when i saw it at mania... ever since i have been trying to track it down..

so are these sides the SSV ones?.. or just similar.. i think SSV are an absolute rip personally..

hey Ajay
heres a few pics of the skirts I've got...

FIRST ONES (like astros) havent seen them anywhere else before. I have a mold of these and are personally my favourite, these ones are actually a set I made.

SECOND ONES unknown brand ones. considering selling. fit really well.

THIRD ONES Rod Millen ones. Another favourite.

I'm considering making a few more molds of parts but it takes time and would have to wait till summer, cause winters not too good for FRP stuff.
