I've turned my talon into a eclipse and still wanted more so I bought a front lip. I couldn't find stock sideskirts in any yards so I went with some fiber flex BC2's. Everything flows well but I can't seem to get rid of gaps under the intercooler and below the doors. I am very particular and a capable mechanic but this has me stumped. I've thought of making brackets for the front end but the side skirts I have no Idea. they seem to miss the bottom of the door jam by 1/8 of an inch and the line isn't very clean. They won't really squeeze up to the body. Any Ideas are welcome.
Thanks

"Back to stock"
man give me a break it's a front lip and the stockist looking aftermarket sideskirts out there. That was like 2.4 seconds after I put the post up. I'm not all for blitz ricey body kits but I like to look a little different. :notgood:
 
The mean green smiley I always use for when I know im being an ass, I was just kidding.
 
Yea true, I need to lighten up but you know how it can get on here sometimes. 4BangR-x I see you have saabs, I have saabs too. Sorry to post a non-DSM but c-mon how often do you run into a fellow saab owner.

I made a bracket to pull up the front the 1/4 it needed. Now just the side skirts.
"The front looks nice, But the sideskirts look wrong. Just an opinion."
I somewhat agree they were lower then what I had hoped. It really does flow well even though the In the pic it doesn't look that way. Even the stock rear end keeps the line really well.

1999 Viggen in Lightning Blue is still my wet dream.

I have an 85 900s, it sucks ass, It acctually just died in a corn feildROFL ROFL

A 1992 900s, I let my cousin take it to Cali with him. I will probably never see it again.

And last but not least, a lil project that seems likes its never gonna get finished. A 1988 Saab Turbo with the Airflow kit:sneaky: That car is in storage, because frankly my yard was starting to look like a hillbilly garbage dump.

A lil pic for those who dont know what a Saab Airflow is(this is not my car)

Just a question, OT, did you ever live in the Blairsville/Indiana PA area? Your car looks familiar.
 
Just lower the fmic, and if you figure out a way to make the middle part of the lip lay flat wiht out drilling and holes in the bumper up there let me know please. THis is the best I could do. Thanks.
