That's the exact look I was going for;

Gotta say tho, the difference in the skirts is pretty marginal

I think the Motegi sides mirror the spats better as the Motegi sides flip out a bit right at the rear, which matches the spats. I am going to say that though as I have exactly the same :lol: I did look for ages at both.

The Mugen sides with the spats has one continuous subtley curved line (cutting through the wheel) though. The Motegi sides and Mugen spats together don't have that elegant flow.

They do angle out though, just not with the gradual "flare" of the Mugen's. Where the Mugen sides look crap is at the front wheel arch where they dont follow the line of the wing. The front part of the Mugen sides have no shape to them.

/\ exactly! I've only been waiting for the door trims to come up for about 3 years!

Thinking of putting some alacantara over the leather on the door card too, brighten it up in the cabin a little...

Carbon trim is on its way to you.

The vinyl on the door is easy to remove but the lower section needs to be cut from behind. The top parts is just tucked into the crease.
Iv got some alcantara on its way. Bloody expensive for the genuine stuff.
