    I know there's a lot of people on here wtih a better eye than me for proportions and whatnot....what do you think of my car with these skirts?



    Anothere hamber has these killer skirts and I'm trying to picture them on my car but I could use a visual. I think I'm going to try and flush mount them, I think I saw a tech on that.

    If anybody can help that'd be great, but it's not worth spending a lot of time on them, so don't knock yourself out too much :D;)

    Oh and if it makes any difference the car has 15" rims on it now, sorry I don't have a current pic

    Thanks in advance!

    Are those cut down Mercs or the old style shoebox ones that were for sale on here not long ago?

    Hey slowandlow!

    They're the ones that were for sale here. Do cut mercs fit flush at the bottom ?

    Cut Mercs seem like they would fit about the same. I was of the impression that mine were cut down Mercs but now I'm not so sure because they look almost identical.

    Ive got em on my 51 club coupe..they are cut flat across the top to fit under the trim.
    without the trim you might find they look a bit 'lost' the trim gives them somewhere to stop.

    They look like old Foxcraft skirts like I have on my 53.

    honestly i dont think you will like the results unless you lower the car much more.
