you are correct about the mounting flange
that eliminates the need for tabs under the car... asking people to sink screws into the underside was always a bane for me.
went thru and changed the trim around the entire skirt. new finishing lines have been traced in the molds. the fender well areas are now finished off a lot cleaner too. the way the parts contour the body of the car is much better. its all a bunch of little shit that no one else but me noticed over the years. i made these skirts some 5-6 years ago and i didnt have the eye for detail that i have now... so basically between the trim on the skirts and the door sil mounting flange are all things ive wanted to take care for the past 2-3 years and i finally had the time and means to do so.
i was hoping my prototype set would be finished last weekend, but they got pushed to this comign weekend (10-24)... so hopefully the update skirts will be up on the site this coming weekend along with part 2 of the video via YouTube (i have half of it done already, just need to shoot footage for the 2nd half).
up next starting in Nov... 180sx "type x" bumper and FRP "type x" lip. no, im not getting rid of my urethane lip, im just going to offer both so if i dont have urethane lips i stock, people can still order a lip and the FRP lip + bumper will be offered as a combo (along with the full "type x" kit).
also i have a certain bumper coming back to my product line next year in FRP that you guys may remember i use to make in urethane
