JDM "Dealer Option" Sides, resource Options

[jgreening]

I was once on a quest for the JDM "dealer option" sideskirts like Magic has on his car. These are sometimes known as "TRD" skirts but I think that is a misnomer. I did a lot of research and determined that they are no longer available from Toyota - either in Japan or elsewhere. There is a company in the UK that still has them available but they will cost about $600 to get them in the U.S.. Here is a picture of the skirts on Magic's car:



Here is picture of the "z-glyde" type skirts that are on the Erebuni 404 kit and other knockoffs from VIS and cyberbestbuy. However, they are different than the dealer option sides, particularly the section near the front wheel. Notice that there is an "angled" section that sticks out near the area under the front of the door on the z-glyde skirts. The lines of the dealer option sides are a little more simple and have a slightly better "flow" IMO.



And, here is a link to the company that offers them for sale:

it would be great if chrisc could make these.....
maybe someone can run it by him

actually jeff, ive already talked with chris about them, he CAN make them, just cant SHIP them..lmao
the skirts are too long to ship cheaply, he'd basicly have to cut them in half to get them over to us for a reasonable price.
