curbed side skirt

darli328 · 09-01-2013, 02:40 AM

So, I pretty much messed up and curbed the bottom/underside passenger side skirt. Long story short, I ended up jumping the curb with my right rear wheel going 5mph or less. I'll try posting pictures tomorrow. I'll be taking it to a body shop next week to get it all fixed. I'm pretty sure I'll need a new side skirt but I'm not really sure what else is under there that could of gotten damaged. It just appears that the underside and side of the side skirt got damaged. Somehow my rear wheel doesn't seemed damaged/curbed and there's only minimal damage on my rear splash guard but to be honest I'm not sure if that's just rock chips or from curbing the car.
With that said is there anything I should be cautious of or mention to the body shop to check/fix?

so funny I've done the same thing on both sides...as stated above don't worry. I just had mine repainted, there was no other damage underneath.

Almost hopped a curb outside of Fall City a couple of weeks ago. Was taking a round about a little fast and there was some gravel, started sliding so I turned out early. Anyway I noticed your location, if you don't have a body shop that you specifically use, my sister and brother-in-law own one in Issaquah. If you want their info you can PM me.

Thanks everyone for all the help. Judging from what everyone has said and looking at my damage I'll probably just need a new side skirt. Which doesn't seem to be that big of a deal

Mathisal, thanks for the info. I'm kind of new to the area and would normally take you up on your offer but I've got a buddy at work that has taken his car to a local body shop I'm going to try. Thanks though, and who knows if where I take it sucks I may get PMing you for your info.
