Default Rocker Panel Molding (side skirt) differences

What are the differences between OEM rocker panel moldings (side skirts)? I have an 18 GrandSport and my side skirts basically stop right at the back edge of the door; they do not extend under the brake ducts. Others extend all the back to the rear wheel opening. I heard some refer to those as "full length". I'm thinking I might swap mine out to the longer set...When I look up OEM parts, I found part number of: 84113135/84113136 which I THINK are mine (shorter version) but the description has nothing about longer/shorter versions, only exposed Carbon fiber or Carbon Flash painted.

Are there 2 versions? What's the difference, is it only the length (is the width & basic shape the same)? Was it an option to get longer skirts on the GS?

TIA!

Length is the only difference. 3/4 is Stage 1 and full is stage 2 and 3. Depending on your budget and need for quality, you can shop anywhere from EOS to c7 Carbon and ACS, to OEM. Hint: OEM is stupidly expensive. Good luck

Those part numbers are for the full length skirts. They do go all the way to the brake duct but they curve around the 3/4 mark

You have a number of options when it comes to getting a set of side skirts. OEM is expensive and the aftermarket ones look good and cost less.
