Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
Do the side skirts extend beyond the side wall of the tires? I mean if you're looking at the car from behind, can you see the side skirts sticking out (like running boards)? Or would it take spacers on the rear wheels to hide them?
Do they actually perform any function other than make the car look lower and "Thicker" than it already is?
I thought they were originally designed to make the car more aerodynamic when used in conjuction with a very low front "air dam".

Jonny what's the status, are we going with Italias plan? If not I have another option using CWSRT6's people they already have the AMG skirts and will be $350 with guaranteed Price, plus shipping.
Here is how it works: They are a large shop and very reputable do to bussiness with also a superior product. Start cost is a total of $2500 devided by 15 equals $168 each to start balance due before shipping out.Plus S&H of the buyers shipping area varies $60-$70 bucks they handle everything.Delivery and time needed to make 4-6 weeks.
Please contact CWSRT6 for more details pm or my email cliffsw@yahoo.com.
So let's pick a vendor and move this forward.

Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
wait so it went from $50 $150 to $170 deposit? Just so I'm clear its at $170 for the deposit and the total without shipping will be $350? Or did the $350 go up accordingly with the deposit? Just trying to make it clear because they're are a lot of numbers being thrown around right now.

Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
Jonny,
I was thinking I really like the AMG skirts. But they would have to be a replacement and the jack points would have to still be functional. I dont want to have flimsy skirts that I have to dodge to jack up the car. I also havent seen it with the SRT front lip. Does that Startech hang down lower. The skirts would have to look like the belong with the SRT front. A little lower is okay. Just wouldnt want them hang way down and look dorky. The price is good and if the look good with the SRT front and the jack points are good. I could be convinced to join in.

I don't want the skirts to hang low either, I just want them to be even with the Startech/SRT front lip.
Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
We need
A. Where to send the money and how much
B. Are they going to be overlays or replacement. I'm fine with over lay as long as when I'm getting out of the car and hit them with my heel they don't make that annoying hollow fiberglass sound!!!!!!
C. time table, delivery and total cost.
must do this ASAP guys. clear all this up.

Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
why is this so confusing...overlays rt? you need 170 now 180+ shipping when they are done...is this correct?....'cause I need to talk to my painter...he really doesn't like to install these things, but will if they fit they way we are being told they will fit..so once fitment is done, we need photos, close-ups, of the actual install...I'm still in, by like I stated earlier reps are on the line on this one...please confirm the price and payment procedure for me, thanks...good work to all for clearing everything else up...

Can you get some pricing on this? I would want black too.

Most of our cars are less then 5 years old so this is an option. I didn't want to complicate things more and post this. But it would be cheaper those who want them painted to have them all shipped to us and then sniped out from our shop. The more the cheaper the price
Re: AMG SLK STYLE Side Skirts for the crossfire
well, I have a painter, but I am open to this since mine is black too....but I will send you 170 for now...to add to this post...pm'd you Jon...money sent
