Neglected to answer this, sorry. The side skirts are painted rain gutter. They are not my favorite. I have considered using the black plastic from the wheel well covers, but the curvature of the roll that is useful for the covers becomes a problem for the side skirts. It is hard to make that plastic stay flat.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
