Which side skirts would you choose

Im getting stillen front lip...and most likely still rear because havent heard enough positive feedback about other options. So would you go all stillen, or sarona sides, or skyline sides ?

Definitly Ionic by far!! Best quality and design out there!!!
FYI, i've run over snow banks, curbs, etc. with the sideskirts, hit them a couple times, and they didn't ding, dent, scratch or anything, maybe i was just lucky, but they are great quality. Speaking of that I had a horror experience a couple days ago here in CT, Fri I think.. when the snow storm hit, I Was backing out of my garage and backed the front of my car.. the stillen front lip into the bank. I thought I had more room then I did so i got out of the car and looked at the front of the car and HOLY ****!!!! My stillen lip was half bent off the front of my car and stuck underneath the bumper. The interesting thing was the screws were still in place, somehow the lip just got stuck under the bumper. Well after I practically sheiit my pants, I unscrewed one side, pulled the lip out, and screwed the sides back in, and PERFECT! can't tell my experience happened to my ride. I got lucky. But stillen lip gets a+ quality for me, other brands would have snapped or at least cracked, not a mark on my lip! anyways, didn't mean to go OT with your thread, but definitly IONIC skirts.

if I was getting side skirts, I'd get the ionic

and I second what RSA said about the quality... I've hit the back pieces here and there and they are still mint.

Stillen is polyurethane
prices vary but the Stillen is very hard to buy separately......



Ionic is fiberglass
sides $270.00 shipped
one-pice rear $215.00 shipped
two-piece rear $150.00 shipped

when i got the whole kit installed the first thing i said was what happen to the sides. they are the same size as the panels that they cover. they aren't even close to matching the front or rear pcs.

so maybe by next month or when it gets warmer out i will change my stillen sides skirts for something lower and i will sell the stillen sides to who ever likes them.

Stillen looks great to me. Ionic makes me want to vomit!

To each his own though...

However, urethane is the way to go when it comes to buying a body kit.

Not a kit out there nicer than the Stillen

urethane is the best.

if stillen would make the side skirts a little longer and try to match the sides to the front and rear they would look great. they also have to work on the form that ends the side skirts.
