Default Veilside fitment issue

This question is for anyone that has access to a digicam and a S2000 with Veilside sideskirts. My body shop is having a bit of difficulty putting the skirts on with the door closing. If anyone could get me a close up of the door jamb with the door open and also with it closed I would greatly appreciate it. If this isn't in the right forum, I apologize. Thanks for any help that you can give.

The side skirts leave very little room between the door bottom and the skirt itself. One solution, albeit more expensive, is to trim off the portion of the skirt that fits below the door and mold the skirt directly to the car.

Hey Ace, just so you know, my body man had to trim off the sideskirts a little and mold it to my factory door sill, so there wasn't any rubbing. He did an awesome job, and it looks like it came from the factory that way. Good luck.

up late huh? Do you want pics of the door jambs in particular, or the complete side of the car showing the sideskirts?

The door jamb, however the bodyshop hooked it up to the inside of the door already. I, however, would still like to see what it would look like the other way. Thanks Malu, and BTW that wasn't up late it was up early
