Nice! Someone on the scionlife forum recently posted a picture of an xB with a really nice set of fiberglass skirts, and about half the replies had to do with how horrible they thought it looked, while some of us (those that realize that you can improve the shape of an xB) thought it was great.

I'd love to have skirts, but I'm hesitant to use coroplast. I'd actually prefer something a bit more permanent.

Do you have anything other than tape holding them on?
