Side Skirt Options?

Ive got a CDC classic chin spoiler and GT500 rear bumper on my car right now and would like to get a set of side skirts to go along with them. Ive yet to see a set that I really like. Any opinions on what would look good with this combo of body mods? Or any opinions on which side skirts are the best looking? The only ones I really like so far are Saleens, but they are pretty expensive so Id like to see what else is out there before I go and drop that kind of money for them.

I'd say get the current ones painted... or take offs that're right... they'll fit best with the GT 500 facia and the chin spoiler.

Another thought... black out the rest of the GT500, and match the current rocker and chin spoiler to match. That'd be nice.

I don't think you'll be much happy with any other rocker covers unless you were to address the rear fascia as well... but that's just my opinion...

If you do ditch the current V6 rockers... whatt're you gonna do with them?

You have a *very* nice lookin' ride!

I did find these... they'll sorta fit the look, but it's probably not what you want...

I had the GT500 bumper and CDC chin spoiler painted body color because I liked the look better and had always planned to go with new side skirts in the future anyway which would also be painted body color, so repainting those parts black is a no go for me. Ive seen those side skirts you referred to before, and although they are nice I dont think they flow very well without the rest of the kit and would look out of place on my car. I tried to find GT takeoffs but cant find a set in mineral grey. Thanks for the compliment on the car!

When/If I do change the rocker panels, Ill most likely sell the stock black ones.
