Yeah, I was saying for testing purposes, so to see if you can live with the loss of comfort. Then you can do a permanent lowering solution.


Clayton - did you ever call Jesse about the side skirts?
CRAP! Nope, never did. Forgot all about it, actually. Do you remember pricing, by any chance?

Ah, nice, indeed they are beefier, I wonder what the side skirts on the AMG packaged cars are then....I guess "half assed AMG side skirts", haha. IMO both look good though, although I do like the extra beef on the AMG ones....

They're actually 'Appearance Package' side skirts. They get double duty on the non-AMG cars with the AMG package. My car came with this 'Appearance Package' from the factory and these are the skirts that came with it.

I'll be popping on the AMG skirts at first chance. They look much nicer IMO

Ahh, damn. If you could do me a favor and let me know where you find skirts if you do, and how much you paid for them in case I ever decide to do the swap that would me mega appreciated.
