I say NO again. The rear doesn't look right on the round arch and especially not with the skinny bumper.

you just can't put skirts on a mk1 loon - it doesn't work with the rear bumper! Even running cav style skirts wouldn't work because of the skinny bumper. Best off running arch extensions as the good man said a few pages back. But you will then need to get some man size wheels not skinny boy steelies.

No, you dont want them skirts... Sell them to me, when can I collect ;) :p

Jack
27-03-09, 01:55 PM
If they fit a saloon they won't fit a hatchback (OEM skirts need an extra bit to legthen them and/or or the rear fin bending, and I can imagine the irmscher style skirts would also need bending round the curved arches).

vaughanmc
27-03-09, 06:28 PM
Aye I'd put them on as well if the other one's aren't to everyone elses taste...

Either way the car will look good :)

Skirts yes, but not the rear raised bit. two sets along the bottom looks not bad

i wouldnt unless your going for mk2 bumpers dont thin they work with the skiny bumpers just like they dont on a hatch with skiny bumpers makes the car look out of proportion imo

I got told off last time i said yes, so.

mowgli
04-04-09, 07:25 PM
ok

Benn
04-04-09, 07:27 PM
I'll get my random coat and leave, but i liked the other skirts.

mowgli
04-04-09, 07:28 PM
yeah, but he lost one of them........ so it would have looked rather odd.

Benn
04-04-09, 07:31 PM
Oh :( the gsi fin bit at the back doesnt look like to the arch, if you made all stright ones i thinkit might look better.

Benn
04-04-09, 07:36 PM
Not the pic i was looking for, but these look very different, yet i find they work well.

some skirted saloons look good, some don't

I have decided not fit my old hatch skirts to my current one cos they helped to rot out the sills on my old one, lets just say that they fell off......

^^ calibra ones aren't they?

Again tho, they will only work with a full rear bumper NOT skinny.

Benn
04-04-09, 09:39 PM
Yeah they are calibra skirts.
