Default Best EF sideskirts...opinions please! need info

I've seen stock mounting side skirts that are just a bit lower than stock....kind of like a lip kit but not sure what its called. Please let me know what side skirts you think are best for a CRX....thanks in advance!

Not mine... copied from another post

and here is how to do it:
Accessories:
1. EK skirts
2. Small rubber hammer
3. Drill
4. Self tap screws
5. Goop automobile glue or (double sided tape if you live in tropical weather not recomended if you live in cold weather)
6. Hand saw/dremel
Step by step:
1. Knock off inside mounts on the skirts (rubber hamer)
2. Lift up car take off front tires.
3. Measure skirts
4. Cut skirts to size.
5.Grind down the upper part of the skirts that goes on the door sill cause they will not let the doors close properly do this until the doors close, it will take sometime
6. Glue or double side tape skirts onto door sill.
7. Drill in self tap screws through bottom of skirts and car frame.
8. Drill screws into rear part of the skirt and wheel well.
9. Put tires back on lower car and you have a new look.................Enjoy

i don't know why you'd want sideskirts on a 4g hatch. i can't speak for CRXs, but the front and rear bumpers on the hatches are noticably higher than the sides in stock form. why make it lower on the sides and not the front/back...
