Notice the skirt doesn’t require a “bulge” to clear the bridgestone re92 165/65/14.

I did notice on the original photo, mostly because I have the VX wheels and have been wishing I could manage little or no bulge around the rear fenders on my 1998 civic. Double thanks for that great detail. I also have been wondering about using some lexan I have around from a house project for the tail light area around a similar part boattail.... so cool to see it has been done. Looks like he painted part of the lexan and also drilled into the body to secure the pieces. Is that correct?
