Some of you may of may not know, I've been working on my car for a long time, fitting an RSX body kit to my EM2.

Anyways, the side skirts have had a ton of fabrication on them, and I saved this part for last, the part of the side skirt that gets attached to the fenders.

This is what it looked like:


and this is what it looked like after I fixed em halfway:


the question here is, do you think I should fabricate the skirt to meet the body line above it?

Like this?:


Or do you think that's being too picky?

 

being too picky IMO. You could always just mold it to the car and not even worry about the body line

 

i dont think you're being picky

i think you definitely should bring the front part up to the fender body line. especially considering the rear appears to follow along the same body line

 

Well, will it bother YOU? Because if you know it will (and it sounds like it might ), then it's worth getting it perfect now!

 

if he brings the front of it up, then it's won't go smoothly along the bottom the ground. It looks straight right now and moving the front of it upward, and mess it up

Have any side view pics of the car right now?

 

I think he's talking about extending the top of the front portion, not changing the position of the entire sideskirt.

 

I think you're thinking about something else...

Yes

Yeah I concur

Yeah i know what you mean, well the problem is not that's it's going to bother me, but that every time I look at it, I'll think that I could have changed it... but didn't

OK, update: I cut it and started fiberglassing it.... and yes i'm going to be way happier with the final results.

Thanks everyone for the tips.

 

I was thinking you were going to just bring remount the skirt up higher, wasn't thinking you'll be adding an additional piece to meet the body line. In that case, I say go for it.

 

i wouldnt waste time with it, theres nothing your gona do to make that look nice

 

Oh ok, thank you for your suggestion. However, I myself am not a pessimistic person, and am interested in constructing and creating things in a positive manner.

Side note: I'm not trying to impress anyone. You should reserve your personal judgment until the build is complete.... even though I still won't care what you think at that point.

Have a great day!
