Unit17 Carbon Side Skirt Extensions w/Small Winglet

Found these looking at all carbon side splitters I could find online. I wanted some extra carbon along the bottom of the car, but was never drawn to the full side skirt replacements with the M performance winglets. Down the line, I intend to paint match the black side skirts and rear corners, and I wanted to add some carbon to the mix.

I ordered these last week, and luckym3girlnj had them shipped out fast. Packing arrived with everything intact with the extensions and some goodies added to the box. I'll say I don't really expect direct contact from people when I buy items online, but lucym3girlnj reached out, shared pictures and videos, and even updated me with shipping directly. Excellent contact and customer service.

Today I spent about 1 hour putting ramps under the front wheels, cleaning up the underside of the skirts, and installing these. Fitment is good and they went on as any other side splitter I've ever installed. I used 3M tape and the included self taping screws. Loving the look and waiting for some rear corner under splitters from MHC to compliment the look.

Here a few pictures before the pouring rain started.

They look excellent! Super clean. Better than the large fins of the m performance sideskirts!

Do these replace the OEM skirts or fit over them?

They fit under them, OEM skirts stay in place fully.

First of all, the car is absolutely stunning! Secondly, I can't believe I'm seeing these for the first time, it's exactly what I've been looking for. The side skirts along with the rear corner splitters is perfect (from the photos on flickr). I'll definitely be getting a set for myself.

Yep, good quality. I'd say same as MHC from R44, and others. Just go for availability and best pricing.
