Need some advise on my dilemma please. I bout a pair of side skids (Techno R) a few years ago and not i want to put them on the Ack. I had a body shop veteran guy tell me that i shouldn’t put these on cause they are made of carbon fiber and that if i install them that they wont last long at all due to the small space in between the bottom of the door, he said that they will rub off when i close the door and if he adjusts the door hinges that i might have problems closing the door…
Does anybody have these on there ack/DA ? And have they lasted ?
He also said that they might crack if some hits them accident. I also know that the other option would be to find a set of EK’s but not too sure if i want to go that route considering the fact that i would have to cut them and then have an opening on the side of the fender…
An never mind looking for Mugen skirts… they are sooo rare.
dont think techno R is made from c/f. all body kits will break if you hit something hard enough.if the skirt is made for DA it should fit w/o adjesting the doors. sounds like you body guy dont know whats he talking about.
We put them on just to see how they would fit, they looked good but the door was hitting it just a bet. He would have to sand them down a little i guess but they are abet cracked on the edge already and they are made of a very light weight carbon fiber.
i have the techno r for my db1 and its not made of c/f. you can check and ask anybody if they made any c/f skirt for da or db. its abs plastic or fiber glass man, you think if they were c/f they would be that cheap? a good body shop can make anything fit properly, those skirt actually looks pretty good on DA.
The best ones i believe would be the plastic side skirts whish would be the Mugens. Too bad they are discontinued. The ones i have are made of fiberglass and they might crack specially in the cold temperatures:::argh:… lol
