PRODUCT REVIEW
So... I bought these sideskirts 
Shipping: Great - via DHL. Took 6 days from Taiwan to Poland. Had to pay only $35 in customs fees and taxes.
Packaging: Amazing - the sideskirts where shipped in a wooden box (2m long).
Quality: Very good - the CF weave is consistent and the clear coat is well polished. Found only one tiny spot/imperfection.
Fitment: Great (95% correct) - I will install the sideskirts without glue, just screws.
Overall: Great product from a very good seller at a great price.

its probably came from the same factory from revozport and all these other chinese carbon companies anyways. just this one doesnt have a brand and US dealer so its less lol. I feel like unless you buy vorstiener or brabus, its all the same stuff.

Matt, the new skirts look like my Revozport skirts for half the cost, good find!
Once on ur car, they look like they stick out a bit more than mine though near the rear door. I will post a recent pic I took this week end to compare.

Btw, those Revozport skirts are tricky to install if u don't have experience. My friend tried to install his skirts on his C63 coupe & it didn't aligned properly at all, so we thought it was a defective skirts from Revo.
But at the end, I referred him to my bodyshop guy & he made it fit perfectly. He also fixed my gap on the front passenger side.. Something that was bothering me from the day they installed it 2 years ago. My bodyshop said the screws have to be installed at the lowest point of the OEM skirts or else it will either tilt foward or backward cuz our OEM skirts have an oval shape.

No it won't. There are other CF sideskirts for the C63 coupe.
Search on eBay.com
This. Exactly my thoughts but I honestly think that Asian manufacturers buy their competitors products and make their own molds to produce the parts at their own facilities.
Thanks Meng. Take into account that the skirts are not installed here. They are just lying on two bricks so their shape and position will change.
Thanks for the install tips - I'll try getting them on by the end of the week

Matt,
Those sides look fantastic! The quality of the CF weave and over all pattern looks to be very good.
Im in negotiations with the same seller, I see they have the Revosport CF diffuser and underpanel as well! Working on a deal for these sides and the diffuser.
I will check in once everything is received!

This seller really has the best pricing!
Here is the rear skirts for 199$ + shipping. I paid 285$can all included for my VIP rear skirts. Revozport wanted 500$ for them.

Not yet. I will be installing them on Monday probably.
I see only one problem with those skirts - it will painful to get on and off lifters at shops :/
No screws and no instructions - just the sideskirts in a wooden box.

Yes Matt, seeing your car is lower than mine... it will be a pain to jack your car after you installed your skirts.
My indy shop cracked my OEM skirts while lifting my car for engine oil/ brake fluid change last springtime. Luckily they fixed it.
So be extra careful when jacking up the car, drive on 2x4 pc of woods to make it easier to put the floor jack.

*Update*
Drove down to benzworks to get my skirts installed. Good thing I didnt attempt to do this myself as you need a few people to get these aligned right before drilling them in. Here are some pics of the install. Thanks to Serge and his guys at benzworks!

AMAZING. Love the new look.
Mine are still sitting in the garage waiting for installation.
The skirts flow perfectly with your front lip, CF10s, and color.
Do you have a sideshot?
BTW what tire/wheel setup are you running?
