When you think you've pulled ahead of the lil wall on the side of the gas station far enough... Pull ahead further...

Anyone know if the wings west kit replaces the factory side skirts or do they go over them?

LOL sorry to laugh at you but I did the same thing in my 93 I was at a post office and I SWEAR that curb was not there when I pulled in!!!! First and last time I spilled anything in that car!!

I think I picked up a used perfect shape one off the boards or ebay or something for like 35 bucks plus shipping. Then I had it painted for about 105 I think... Mine was purple pearl so a rare color, I imagine it would be easier to find a NBM one.

plus realize the paint doesn't match on these parts from the factory so for me "blending" would have been a waste of money..

I nailed mine in a gas station 7 years ago as some old bat turned on me as I was leaving and I had to cut it sharp. Every time i look at it I want to kick the old bat!
