Side skirts?

my stock side skirts are now bent and dented(reasons i couldnt help) and i want to cover them up with an aftermarket one, i want something very subtle because it will be going on an I30. The only sides i hear about are the Ionic and Stillen, anything else available?

The R34 bodykit sides are similar to the Stillen sides and much cheaper.

there is also R32 (which are the ones I am getting) and if you were looking for something a little more plain go with the Evo skirts

Edit: I just looked again and found VIP side skirts and they are very subtle like you had said

Cosigned about the VIP sideskirts. They are very subtle. Flows with the lines well. Ive been thinkg about going for this kit as well. IIRC its based on the Japanese Hiro Kit.

^ That would be the Extreme Dimensions kit. Personally, Its too bland for my taste. Im thinking of matching the ED front lip with Ionic sides.

A friend of mine gave me some side skirts. He didnt know what they were made for. The length was perfect. They were a little wide and I had to trim them down so they'd sit closer to the car. I hate the 'vent' on them.



Dont mind the tails. I finally got around to getting my 98-99 conversion done.

We have been selling the "Skyline" styled side skirts for a while now, here's a pic so you can check them out:


PM me if you are interested, the fitment is good since we corrected the fitment on my old maxima.

Possibly. I have another similar set that need to be shortened. I may not use either of them as I want something closer to the body of the car and I might be making a set out of metal.

Let me get my other ones started first. If they turn out good you may want a set of them, and I'll let you take your pick of the three.
And the tails looked better when the reverse lights matched the signals, but I messed them up and had to replace them.

The price on the sides is $219 shipped (regular price would be $239). I would have to make them since I haven't sold a set in quite a while.

Let me know.

Fiberglass, handlaid and produced by us so the quality is good.

Thanks!
