Side skirts question...

Do the side skirts for the new Mustangs fit the 05 to 09 body? Why I am asking is that I really like the Roush/RTR side splitter or will this splitter fit our skirt with some modification? Has anyone here done this? Yes, I have searched for this but only found reference to the newer Stangs.
Link for reference: http://www.roushperformance.com/part...2010-2012.html

Thanks in advance

Thanks for trying Glenn. It seems to be a good question that has no answer yet.

I might have an answer for you. Pretty soon I know Trufiber/Trucarbon out in Corona will be selling carbon fiber side skirts for the 05-09 body.
What I did though earlier this year was purchase some used 10+ Carbon Side Splitters and modified them to fit my car. All I did was cut off the little towers that bolt up to the 10+ so that the side splitter was totally flat. Then I aligned them with my side rocker drilled some holes and bolted them up. Did both sides in about an hour.

There was someone over on the S197 forum that did it. There are some bumps (for lack of better term) that need to be cut off. Also, the shape of the front fender is different at the edge of the wheel well, so there was a gap from where the older s197 cuts in sharper. It wasn't horribly noticeable on his black car.
