Default Sideskirts

hi guys,
i was looking at buying some typhoon sideskirts and was wondering if BA or BF s/s fitted onto an AU series 1.
Cheers, Adam

Oh yea and how do you think a set of 5" 250w Boss speakers will go in my parcel shelf untill i get more..???? too small to produce good sound or..??

Yes, I've been told BA/BF skirts do fit AU.

I thought the BA/BF skirts didnt fit because the AU's had a shorter wheelbase???? (theres a good chance I could be wrong)

i could be wrong here too , but i think there was a thread on something similar to this the other day , but the issue was BA/BF skirts off a UTE to fit on an AU sedan , i think they did , but they had to be cut a bit shorter i think . I dont think this helps any anyway ..lol sorry

Skirts need to be shortened to fit but can be done.
