with my 275s up front and somewhat aggressive offset, the lower half of my side skirts looks practically sand blasted. i have to get them repainted but not until i find a way to protect them better.
you can buy some thicker clearbra material for pickup truck beds and should work fine. i have like a 4" wide strip running down along the rockers. bought from amazon for like $40. i would do the same if i get the Ings sides.

yah, they are expensive and questions if it's really worth it or not. at the end it will be worth it, but then you will be searching for something to finish the rear bumper sides. lol this is why i haven't done them yet.

if there was a nice wide rear diffuser piece i would do it...

i am sure that they are worth it in fit and quality but they arent worth that much to me, there are far too many other things to buy in my life for $1000 that i dont see myself getting around to some side blades for the Z at that price lol
considering their front splitter runs like $600+ shipped, $776 + 150 shipping for 2pcs isn't a bad deal imho. but i'd need something to finish the rear bumper so..
