You absolutly need sideskirts,with those front and rear,stock won't do it.!!
I have the exact same problem as you do,but not with the same front and rear.
Don't know exactly what would fit better;have a look at J's C.f.sides.
Anybody else have suggestiosn???

Ignore Emil, you absolutely do not need any sideskirts with that set-up. I have the exact same set-up with no sideskirts. Amuse doesn't use sideskirts on the white or orange car with that bumper on their website. The bumper doesn't hang low so it's totally not necessary unless you want to spend money.

When you're wrong you're wrong and you should just admit it. S2X, ep3minivan, myself and Amuse don't run sideskirts with that bumper and we get compliments all day long. Also the TS rear diffuser doesn't hang low so it really doesn't need sideskirts.

WindchaserS2K - it's your choice, but is it necessary? No, IMO and I have both items on my car.

What you can't seem to comprehend is that it can't be the rest of the world, if everyone who has the Amuse front isn't running sideskirts? It's just you. Explain how you are right when everyone who has the Amuse front doesn't have sideskirts? Explain how you are right, when you don't have the product but can talk about it? It's differing opinions, but your opinion holds less weight.
