just wondering since it looks like the sideskirts attach underneath the side. In case of a flat are you able to jack up your car w/ the jack that came w/ our cars or did you have to buy a differnt jack?
Thanks

Yes, you can jack it up with the OE jack. The side spoilers wrap under but the lower edge isn't attached to the car.

also got a question, does the rear section of the stillen kit completely cover up that spare tire cavity, if u look at a reg, max u can see that big spare tire cavity and it looks kinda weird, i wanna ger rid of those rear splash guards and cover that up at the same time, so im thinkin of gettin the stillen rear and sideskirts, and gettin the big mouth front end.... i think it would be a nice mix

I'm curious,

Could someone take pics of the area where the rear valence replaces the splash guards? Since there is no splash guards, does the rear valence get a lot dings where that the splash guard would have stopped?

I don't get any and I don't have the splash guards, however I do get lots of dirt and road tar sprayed along the rear fender which splash guards would prevent.

When I purchased my Stillen kit I also ordered some bulk 6" Scotchcal film from xpel.com (the "clear bra" product). I'm going to apply a strip to the areas where road grime gets kicked up by the tires. Xpel recommends allowing 7 weeks for a professional quality paint job to cure before apppling the film.
