hey all

really looking to get my side skirts pretty soon, and try get them on before Motorvation next Jan

these are the ones i'm looking for - 'Mondeo':

no raise to them, they just fill out the sills under the doors. my concern is that it might look a bit odd if it doesn't have front & rear skirts - which i don't really want to get. from the look of that pic, i don't *think* that the skirts will be too low for the front & rear bars, but please throw me your thoughts! :)

they are nice skirts...
i have seen an EL fairmont with just the tickford skirts, no front or rear lips, and considering they are not chunky like the XR ones, it shouldnt look out of place imo...

I think it would be ok with just the side skirts, they have such clean lines, most people wouldn't even notice them.

It would make a nice change, I have the bulky tickford ones on my car and the biggest problem with is people keep hitting the side skirts with there feet when they get in to the car which leaves big scuff marks in the paint.

i reckon it would look funny with the front and rear skirt because of the shape of the tickford front and rear skirts, like the triangle shape they sort of have formed at the end of them. I like those side skirts and i think they would look pretty nice without the front and rear skirt :wink:
