@dougwillard06 – Were the fender skirts repainted along with the rest of the car so that they match? I only ask because I have looked at a couple examples where they painted the entire car, but not the fender skirts because they weren’t using them. Thank you. ...
The fender skirts were painted when the car was painted so they match the car
