Here are the pics of the final version of my sideskirts. These are temporary until tomorrow morning when I take new pics in the daylight.
The side are NOT installed on the car, merely placed on it that's why they're slanted. When installed they are straight down, and closer to the body.

not bad...should look a lot better when painted and finished product is installed.....keep up the good work for another type of sideskirts for our maximas....atleast u tried to do somehting and not wait for someone else to do it for you....

Looks kind of like an erebuni sideskirt. Pretty good for a first attempt. Maybe make it more round, and flare out a little more to match the car better. Sideskirts aren't easy. At least yours are the same length, my Sarona skirts were 2" different in length and they do this for a living.

Thanks, at least someone recognizes the fact that I have been hard at work to come up with new products for our rides. The sideskirt pictured is my first attempt at making a fiberglass item of its size, and therefore I made it fairly simple and I know that's what some people like. Please give me any suggestions on the design so I can come up with different ones. Thanks.

Maybe have someone even photoshop them for now to look painted. it will give a better idea of how it will look painted and what not. Alot of people are good with photshop on here. I know GTR is.

Bingo, I was going to say the skirts would look really sweet if they were slanted toward the wheels like the bimmers.

Props to you man, love to see what they look like finished in the daylight.

they don't look TOO bad but they betta be real cheap to waste money on them. I'm hoping they are like 30 dollars or less...otherwise i would put that money into something better...well, i probably gotta see them in person...

Did you design them. Cuz I see where you were goin with that but if you made them a little bit lower they would look a lot better.

does not look that bad, remids me of the e36 sideskirts from 92-95.
As for tips, i think you should ditch the front part and maybe add it a LITTLE in the back and also maybe add an inch.
