thanks guys!, more parts incoming.
Just wondering would anybody be interested in Carbon Fiber sideskirt runners(the ones that go under the sideskirt)?
Im am talking to a few guys in my area that may be willing to try and take on the project. im looking to get something similar to the ones on this slk except not as big.
Would anybody be interested? i just want to get a list together of people who are just so i can remember to update them specifically on how the process is going (you are obviously not committing to anything if your name is on the list).

I'm interested as long as they will seamlessly integrate with the OEM skirts, aka, no Civic double sided tape crap

It's got to flow well with the body and still give access to the jacking points!

im going over to meet with somebody on sunday. I agree the jack points have to remain intact the one thing im trying to figure out is how we should have it mount. They cant really be drilled in and idk if 3m tape will hold.
how hard is it to remove the jack pad adapter things. And how easy are they to put back on. I was thinking that if we mold it in a way that the jack pad will actually secure the lip in but idk if the pad will just rip right out.

With the speed our cars are capable of, we need to make sure the jack pads are strong enough to hold'em or risk a rear wheel tire blowout at high speeds

If these carbon add on skirts are a tight mold to the underside of the OEM skirts, there will be no problem drilling in 5 or 6 screws to hold them in place - much like all of us with the front lip spoiler, same concept.
