Default Techno R side skirts for DA input.

Hey guys,

Need some advise on my dilemma please. I bout a pair of side skids (Techno R) a few years ago and not i want to put them on the Ack. I had a body shop veteran guy tell me that i shouldn't put these on cause they are made of carbon fiber and that if i install them that they wont last long at all due to the small space in between the bottom of the door, he said that they will rub off when i close the door and if he adjusts the door hinges that i might have problems closing the door...

Does anybody have these on there ack/DA ? And have they lasted ?

He also said that they might crack if some hits them accident. I also know that the other option would be to find a set of EK's but not too sure if i want to go that route considering the fact that i would have to cut them and then have an opening on the side of the fender....
An never mind looking for Mugen skirts... they are super rare.
Thank you guys.

what do the techno R skirts look like? i have EK sides on my car. you gotta make an end plate for the front. mine are made of stainless steel.

if you're interested in a set of Mugen knock off sides i have a set of those too.

yea that's what i was thinking of somehow making the plate to cover the whole. I honestly think the skirts i have are the Mugen knock offs cause they look exactly the same just not with the Mugen logo.
Did you put those on the Ack before ? what king of material are they made of ?
Thanks.

They look like these but in White....

do they round off towards the back or do they stay square.

Those are the mugen replicas. they'll be fine if install them correctly and don't smack in to anything.

this is the only pic i have where you can see the end plate.
