EVO-R side skirts review.... non carbon version
 

hey everyone... i just recieved the NON carbon fiber version side skirts from evo-r and decided to do a review.... all i can say is that... he does some FAST SHIPPING.... i freaked out that they arrived already... packaging top notch.... they were secured with so much foam i had a hard time taking them out lol i cut the box apart...the quality of the product itself is great... the underside is unfinished but it doesnt matter because you wont see that part anyways... the paint job on the side skirts were beautiful... i didnt have to spray them black anymore... it doesnt come with instructions but it does come with a 2 long rolls of 3m mounting tape.. and self tap screws... it took about 10 mins to install each side.... installing it is pretty straight forward... line it up and stick it on the underside then self tap screws to secure it even more... fitment is perfect and yes the jacking tabs clear the side skirt add ons.. i actually used two scissor jacks thats how i jacked one side up.... :happydance: now all i need is a lip and im good :D

here are the pics... ps.. i just installed 30mm and 25mm ichiba v2 spacers also :happydance:

damn simota you're always the first one at it..How much did you pay for it? im thinkin getting it too when i get the $$..looking good

i paid $329 + $65 for shipping them to guam..... came in like four days.... freaking fast....

I love it I will prolly go with the sun line kit too. Are you going to do the sl front as well?

Car looks great!

Did the self tapping screws go into metal? If so might I suggest you remove them, clean the holes and put some touch up paint on them to prevent any future rust issues!

You have to remove the splash guards to install them, right?

Good Point:iagree:

I believe so with the EVO-R version.

i really really really wanna get the Sunline racing lip... i think it looks absolutely beautiful!!! BUT its made outa fiberglass :( and i know imma destroy it hitting an unnecessary bump or if i scrape the crap outa it by accident.... i was waiting for replicas to come out when it did its still frp :facepalm: so instead im going with jp vizage since they off a FULL polyurethane lip for the front... i figure if i ever accidently slam a pot hole i wont crack it... ill just have to repaint it :tup:

the self tap screws didnt go through any metal... the stock sides are made outa plastic and the screws where only half an inch long.... when i screwed them in.. i even just used my hands not a cordless drill to drive it in...

correct.... you have to remove the stock mud flaps.... i originally wanted to keep the mud flaps.... but when i got the rear caps... and i was tryna sell them.. the other red z told me he wouldnt buy it unless it came with the front... so i had no choice.... i believe username mbonnani aka mike from double down... has a pair of the rx-7 side spats that allows the usage of the stock front mudflap... i was suppose to buy it from him.... try sending him a pm if you wanna buy it.... :tup:
thanks for the assist dreamer :D

Those look great. I wish they angled up a bit on the ends more like splitters though. This still looks more subtle and clean, especially when paired with the front and rear pieces. :tup:

Your car looks better and better each time I see it man, it looks GREAT right now.

:tup: now all i need is the front lip :D

thanks man.... :tiphat:

Why don't you remove your splash spoilers now that your lowered?

^^^ i kinda like having them on still... :tup: could be just me but yah.... lol ill take them off when time comes for a lip....

simota- damn, looks good. Nice job! :D

And you're glad you kept your stock wheels, yes?

yes!!!! haha thanks kenchan :tup: i woulda been rocking some stern rims if it werent for you guys... :facepalm:

Looks good Simota!

:iagree: I have seen this car from bone stock to this current condition. It's amazing how well this car has turned out. :tup:

i <3 this car. gj sims :tup:

thanks bro :D

thanks AK :D its been alota fun getting her at the current stage shes in.... :tup: i still have a bunch of ideas i wanna do to her... :tup:

thanks phelan :happydance: i cant wait to your car come out... amuse ftw...

I'd never thought a solid red would look this sick

Is that the sunline rear pieces that you have painted red next to the evo-r diffuser? Can you take some more up close picks of the side pieces, I'm trying to imagine what they would look like on a white Z.

:tiphat: thanks bro :happydance:

here you go man.... :tup: just ask someone to photoshop it!!! :D

looks great, might have to add those to my mod list!

Whats your suspension set up?
Ride looks nice dude

i just have eibach springs..... :tup:

:iagree: Looks good dude! I see you got your rear diffuser too. :tup:

I like those too. Especially with the Evo-R rear diffuser. :tup:

thanks for the compliment zpirate :tiphat:

Dang you prob have the best looking red Z on the site, where did you buy the rear pieces? Someone should Photoshop it white, rep+ to whoever does ;)

thanks again bro... i got it from keng... a member on this forum :happydance: super kool guy... got them to me in like 2days from texas!!! freaking half way around the world lol

Ya I saw on the sunline site, they are like $598 for the frp version, does he sell them at a cheaper price, if so can you have him PM me a deal? Also in your opinion, what would look better with the painted rear pieces: carbon or not carbon evo-r diffuser? The only carbon I have is the F.I. Exhaust mufflers, and don't want it to look too "over the top", lol

i would suggest carbon... itll be a nice accent to the fi carbon exhaust.... i think itll look great with the painted rear caps.... keng bought it from shine auto.... they make replica sunline kits.... i think its like 250 if you go directly to them....

Hey was there any fitment issues with any of the pieces you ordered? Gaps, etc..

Does look good!

i wont lie to you.... there is gaps.... about 1/8 gaps.... :shakes head: but its only in the middle of the piece.... but if know a good body shop can tweak the parts and make them fit perfect... it was my fault for not checking the fitment.... i automatically thought it would fit perfect....:ugh2:

So as long as its installed right the first time, there wont be any gaps?

that looks great :tup:

btw what exhaust is that?

I like your z dude. Never thought non-sports package z would look this hot :)
