Default Installed ACS Carbon Flash skirts.....(pics)

Today I installed the ACS Carbon Flash painted skirts.. Quality was really nice, paint looked great and was a dead match to my rear spoiler. Fitment was perfect and needed no filing or modification to line up perfectly. I did drill the holes and install the supplied rivets.. No issues though and the skirts are VERY sturdy with virtually no flex.





I'm glad I'm finished with that job, nothing like drilling 18 holes in the body of your new car...

Hopefully this will help keep my brake ducts and lower fenders from getting pelted by rocks...I've already had to touch up a few chips.

Yeah after getting a rock chip on the right brake duct on the drive home from the dealer, and then couple on the other side within a few hundred miles, I knew I HAD to do something.

I'm looking into the XPel options now.

I do think the side skirts will help and definitely look good. Not bad for $900 and I had them within 5 days of ordering.
