Are the cf sideskirts OE style? They needa bring out some flare cuz with the front & rear lips on, the sides doesnt look that promising..

Not really...it may be the bad pics. I'm a horrible photographer, so the pics don't do the kit justice. I'm still waiting though on the remake of the skirts from Seibon since the original ones they molded did not fit correctly.

It is bolt on with some double sided tape.

Sorry for the crappy pics but I was in a rush. The car was filthy too because I had just completed a 10 hour road trip to New York to drop it off. Anyway, here you go.

Actually, they called me on Friday. They are done, but they want me to destroy the ones i currently have on my car and right now, i don't have the car. If anything, you probably can still order them but i'd call to confirm the fitment is correct. They say they should fit flush now, but until i put them on my car, i can't confirm that. I won't be able to until i get the car back, which won't be until probably early March.

I think i'm gonna wait until you get your new ones. I wanna make sure that the sideskirts are lower and dont look out of place like they did before

Any news on this?

Are they making the skirts sit lower, or are they just making them fit correctly?

If they don't make the skirts lower, then I dont think i'm gonna be getting the full kit. The skirts look OEM height as where the front and rear lip look 1.5" lower than stock

I thought the skirts were oem height, but then I saw blackmamba build, who only has the front lip, and they look like it matches the oem side skirt height...

Yea that's where I'm torn. It seems as if the front lip is only slightly off from the sides, but if you look at the 2nd picture a few posts above ^^ the rear lip is WAY off from the end of the sides

hm, think i worded my previous post confusingly,
check out blackmambas build: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=204644

The front lip looks to match the heigh of the stock sideskirts.
So i am assuming that the Seibon CF sideskirts are actually smaller in heigh than stock?

Reguardless, the skirts don't match the front lip slightly, and they dont match the rear lip whatsoever

From what i was told, the skirts are a completely new mold and should match up with the front and rear lips. I won't know until i get my car back to test fit the new ones.

Sorry for the delay. Still don't have my car. Probably now, not until April. Did they ever respond to your email?
