nowhereboy Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I've saw a good few Z's (mainly american ones) with what look like side skirt add on's that fit over the original stock ones, not just the spats but a full skirt running all the way along the original one. I'm at work so can't google pictures to give a proper example but I'm keen to know if anyone knows of any that can be bought in the uk? My existing side skirts have some damage due to a high curb and rather than just getting them fixed I figured it might be a good idea to buy something that will simply cover it up (and make the car look better in the process). Can anyone point me in the right direction? Quote
nowhereboy Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 Nah dude, I looking for something to cover up some of the skirt rather than stick out from under it. Something similar to this...... Quote
veilside z Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 Looks like AIT racing parts. Check Google. Quote

Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 They are Nismo V3 side skirt replicas, I can get them but they are quite bulky to ship in Quote
nowhereboy Posted October 14, 2015 Author Posted October 14, 2015 Cheers tarmac! Do they fit over the stock skirts? What sort of price are we talking? Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Cheers tarmac! Do they fit over the stock skirts? What sort of price are we talking? Not entirely sure on fitting of those to be honest, I sold some originals a year or so ago and I am pretty sure they were add ons to the OEM skirts. I'm guessing these ones would be around £300 to get here as they are bulky. No idea of quality either as never sold them, generally you get what you pay for so expect work to be required for a good fit and finish. Or you could get the originals at 2 or 3 times the price Quote

Richie94gts Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 I think those are the ones I have (although not from that seller), they needed cutting down and bonding on to look decent. Bit of a faff but look ok now. I suspect that photo is of a factory nismo v3 rather than a car with their kit on. Here's mine: 2 Quote
Jetpilot Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Would like to see some of these colour coded as all the photos i can find are different colours Quote
nowhereboy Posted October 17, 2015 Author Posted October 17, 2015 Excellent work Jet pilot! I trawled ebay for hours and couldn't find anything. Gonna match those up to the GT style front lip from tarmac and it should start taking shape nicely. Quote
nowhereboy Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 I'm not sure yet. Can't find any pictures of them colour coded for a reference. Guess it would be cool as it would be a bit different. Quote
Richie94gts Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 I have seen a pic of these colour coded but couldn't find it again. Looked really nice. Looks like most people team them with black lips and rear splitters (and they were a factory option in the states/Japan). 1 Quote

nowhereboy Posted October 29, 2015 Author Posted October 29, 2015 Unfortunately not. Xmas has destroyed my bank ballance! I'm getting the front spliter as a present tho so I'll buy them in January and get them all fitted together. Planning on getting the bumper smoothed and re painted while I'm at it. Quote
nowhereboy Posted October 29, 2015 Author Posted October 29, 2015 Really need to start a build thread at some point, might do it today if I can find the time. Quote
