Default Need a bit of Assistance with Comptech Side Skirts

Hello -

I'm strongly considering buying a set of these, but cannot find any photos of any berlina S' with them installed. (Most of the threads in the search I performed were too old to retain the images they once contained.) If anyone could render me some assistance, I would greatly appreciate it! I have seen the Comptech file photo of the silverstone S, and although it looks great, I really want to see how they would look on my berlina. Oh, and any of you who have had them installed for awhile, how well do they hold up to road debris, etc.? I may reconsider if I find I need to have them repainted every 6 months.

Thanks again, all!

Thanks, seung, for all of the photos!

I am going to be lowering my car an inch, after I get my s2r's. How much lower are the neuspeeds than that? If all of that damage occurred within 3 months (and I'm going to make the bold prediction that you didn't take your car 4x-ing ), I may have to reconsider. I don't mind having to re-shoot parts of my car every couple of years, as may be required with black cars with less than incredible paint, but if that's after only 3 months...
