I know the Solstice guys had a fitment issue with their sideskirts once upon a time. I think some of them installed a rivnut and screw toward the rear of their sideskirts because the 3M tape wasn't doing a sufficient job of holding the pieces in place. I was wondering if any Sky/ Opel GT people have had any issues with the fitment of the Sky sideskirts and/or if they had to do the same as the Solstice folk?

Hello, those are the Sky skirts shown. Hydro Dipping costs more than painting as you first have to paint a base color in this case black then dip the part in a bath of water with a film of the fiber material floating on the top. After baking then have to clear coat and buff. Yes we can do these for you too. Thanks again Norm 574-255-7843

Those look great. I wonder how well they would match the Carbon Fiber paint?

Got the front side fenders and side skirts installed last weekend. The passenger front side fender front tip was broken during shipping. I applied a temp fix. I'll fix it permanently at a later time. Otherwise,  the pieces look great! Brings a whole new look to the car and boy she's getting a lot of new attention. Norm, you are a true artist!

Ditto, have always dug white on white combo; gives a slick, clean & classic look all at the same time.
