Default 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.... now all i need is a lip and im good

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

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?

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 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

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....

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.
