five axis sideskirts warping
so I am running into some sagging/warping on the bottom of my five axis sideskirts. Does anyone else have this issue and if so any solutions to fix the sagging?

almost like a W actually. right around the door area but at the bottom. I think that there should be tabs there to hold them in place to support them, but there is nothing there to do so.

Well considering this is basically a $1k kit (or nearly so) I would be concerned. Have you thought of maybe contacting five axis and seeing what they have to say? It couldn't hurt.

to be honest, i think its the paint, not the sideskirt itself. when i looked at mine, it looks like the paint is the one giving the illusion of warping. when i run my hand thru it, i dont feel any abnormalities.

No warparge here.. I have mounted brackets in the the center.. But is polly uerathane.. With heat, it tends to soften it up.. and the roads being hotter than ever and the kit sitting as low as it does. yeah.. most likely the cause..

RS1 is normally either ABS or C/F.. it's more rigid than Poly. But poly bends so no cracking.. POLY FTW..
