Default AU side skirts?

Howdy,

I currently have T3 copy side skirts. Although these looks ok, i have had many problems with them.

I was wondering would F6 side skirts fit an AU with minimal modification? Also what other options are out the for the AU?

Cheers,
Matt

im quite sure the F6 skirts are LONGER than your car but will fit even if you have to just trim the end off and re attach the end cap
im quite sure there is aftermarket F6/GT skirts available now due to a few AUs with BA/BF GT kits getting around

BA/F FPV skirts need to be shortened. plus the rear dogleg wont fit.

will be a decent custom job.

i know this because i was originally gonna get a set off AWC, but then decided not to.

you'll also find they are just as deep as the T3 skirts.

Ebay seller, user name "ronlink" sells the BA/BF kits to suit AU. (GT style skirts) he quoted me $170.00 i think for skirts alone. Hope this helps.

Thats alright i guess. Wouldn;t midn having a look.

I had my car on and off a trailor a few times and it copped a small bump underneath which resulted and the bloody thing popping out and up a poofteenth in front of the door. So when i open it it clunks. Has done it before and it really annoying.

Just wanted something a bit different and something that is fitted propperly. When the insurance job was done the dodgey bastards used pop rivets to hold it on!

If you do go down this path I may be interested in your current side skirts if you were to sell them. They happen to be in the right colour to.
