The RS skirt is the mini-skirt around here. Very popular, especially with the long-legged RS wheels and a nice RS tail. Should also get the RS front end treatment to match.

Here's the thread you're looking for.

I have the GT3Tek RS side skirts, easy to install, fit well, cheaper than OEM.

I installed them without painting or sanding, right out of the box.

Yes. They are replicas of the factory RS side skirts at half the price. The RS is a NB car.

I don't have any direct experience with those particular rockers, but be very careful if you proceed with any fiberglass based product. First of all any fiberglass based product, skirt or splitter will be far more susceptible to damage than Polyurethane. Second, fiberglass WILL require some massaging and work to fit correctly.

I went down the path of fiberglass skirts initially, and they are cheaper to purchase, but when you add the expense of fitting them, they are actually MUCH more expensive. I ended up returning them and getting the GT3Tek skirts

I would highly recommend polyurethane like the GT3Tek skirts over any fiberglass product. The GT3Tek skirts went right on out of the box.

Skirts and splitters by nature are going to take a beating, I have had fiberglass body parts before, and they are very fragile, it only takes one decent hit to crack them. Sure fiberglass is easily repaired, but who wants the hassle?

I had the TK style fiberglass rocker. Since it was fiberglass, fitment was very hard. I didn't really like the look, so I took them off.

Here is a pic of when I had them....along with an Euro turbo bumper /w the lower cover. All were unpainted & just fitted to see how they look.

Half the fun of owning these cars is the modifications you can do to them.
