They used my elise as a prototype to mold the side skirts...they have been made, I just haven't had time to drop my car off to have the side skirts installed, maybe next week.

Yea, I heard about this development, but are they for sale yet?
Do you know how they are affixed to the chassis?

Tell me when you wanna sell that 5-E diffuser....Robert

Got a very professional email stating the side skirts are going to be 850-950 for the set. THEY ARE NOT READY TO ORDER YET. Prices is not final either.

The lip is gonna be 650-700 and is also NOT YET READY to order.

Hopefully they dont mind me listing this but they didnt say it was a secret.

I was told if you subscribe to their news letter you will know as soon as they are ready for sale. Hope this helps

Alright, someone clean up that white exige then go to the track with those on. I want to see how much of the tire marks these block.

They would pay for themselves if I didn't have to replace my side starshield each year.

On a side note, this car is gorgeous. If I decide to turn my car into a track rat, this is exactly what it would look like. Hope to run into you (figuratively) at an LCS event in the future.

So has anyone tracked with them on? I'm serious about wanting to know if they help protect the side panels from rocks and rubber...

a few guys have been running aluminum side sills for quite a while now and they help immensely to keep the car clean...its a nice side benefit.

Thanks. Mine is so tore up now that I'll probably have to get some fiberglass work done on them and painted. Wonder how well the CF will hold up to the punishment...
