Without side skirts after trip to bodyshop:-



With skirts & flaps to protect expensive new paintwork :-

I reckon classic need skirts or some sorts....

 

I actually quite like them without, even on the above. I think it's because it creates an imbalance and makes the front look deeper as a result.

Either way, the car above looks superb anyway.

 

Yea I'd say without too
Looks meaner

 

My mates old Type R without skirts!!

 

looks wrong with splitter fitted, no continuity of body lines, would need mud flaps to counter IMO

 

Not an R but an RA. Not pretending either.

 

 

Cheers guys hmmmm still undecided I'll be running 17inch gold millenniums.
Also don't no the state of my sills under the trims

Thanks again

 

Check out Chris P's thread on Surrey, photo of it after lots of work, but minus the skirts as he was waiting on new clips.

 

And there's always mine.....

No skirts or spoiler....

 

Or wheels or rear light lol

 

Each to there own and its your car but can I ask why do you want your type R looking like an RA

 

Looks familiar how's it going

 

It was just a thought I'll be keeping the sill trims for the min
Oh I'm a little mad!!

 

I got slightly side-tracked, bought a v1 to strip for bits for the R, decided it was too good to scrap, bought another v1 to rebuild that.... Its now finished, and the R is under cover ready for some work. I'm only missing front brakes now, everything I've got was how it was from new. its taken a while.

 

Less places for the crud to gather and rust the car. That one of the reasons I de-skirted my classic!!

OP, the splitter and the spats need to go the keep it balanced imho

Not a 2 door but you get the idea




I'm also de-skirting my new Bug WRX project too
