Who makes the best CF side skirts for a GS?
I am considering putting side skirts on my GS and am asking forum members who have purchased carbon fiber ones from preferably forum vendors, who has the best quality and pricing?
Thanks in advance,
Billy

You will get varied replies. I have the carbon fiber RPI ones. The weave was excelllent as was the shine in the clear.
Other ones that are quality but considerably more expensive are
APR
Katech
APSIS

You can't beat RPI's price and quality.

- Put the car on jackstands
- Remove the wheels
- Loosely install the rear gurney flap
- Attach the skirt to the rear gurney flap and at the front
- Locate the skirt against the rocker panel and drill the center hole (yes, you get to drill the rocker panel)
- Install the screw/bolt that secures the skirt to the rocker panel in the hole you just drilled
- Continue drilling and installing the bolts working from the center out
A mix of photo's but you'll get it...
