I said the side skirts looked good.

Not complaining at all - just offering an opinion on MY thread. I guess you know better than the team of kit designers to mix and 2 entirely different bodykits tho.

It does look like a bot of mash-up.

Side skirts look good tho. :D

The skirts are part of the arch flares, they slide into each other, won't work on their own ;)

I'm not saying I know better than the team of kit designers, just saying than in my opinion it looks good.
