The gap is right by end of the back of the driver side door where the quarter panel starts. Heating did not help due to the way it contours to the rest of the car. I will try to reach out to the vendor and see what they say. They should fix in my opinion and check their mold
The driver side picture of the rocker on their website looked warped to me. I was hoping that was not the case and just an odd angle or image. Please let us know what their resolution is.

Just an update, contacted them and they sent me a replacement driver side fender no charge, and it came out fine. Their explaination is as following:


Definitely sorry you're having this issue. While the majority of the skirts are making it to the customers in good condition, we have had a few challenges with skirts not adhering properly. We've confirmed it is not the mold and believe the issue occurs during packaging and/or shipping. The gap is random, being found on either the driver's side or passenger side in different spots. We feel it is possible they are packed a bit too tight in the box; If not placed properly can cause pressure and bend over time.

Makes sense, they double checked the side skirts before shipping out I just reinstalled and it went on fine like the pass side.

Good seller and took ownership of the problem and resolved.

Says a lot about the company.

Also for anyone using double sided tape on this set or any others I highly recommend 3m adhesion promoter. Kind of hard to find at local shops. Luckily I have one place in town hay carries them.
They come in little packets with a sponge inside. Works wonders for adhesion strength, I usually get 8 packs for 2 side skirts. $2.50 a piece.

It's not the same as paint adhesion promoter for plastic

Yes use the adhesion promotor. This company is solid and i will buy these when my knee gets better.

I just dont know if i would paint them tocmatch the car or go with my matte black theme to break up the color a little bit

Did you get the gloss black one or unpainted?

I have their skirts, front bumper and 1/4 window scoops. So far fitment has been excellent. I would recommend an adhesive for the sides skirts, but it isn't necessary. My skirts and bumper came unpainted and I had a local painter paint them gloss black.

I don't know if I'm allowed to post, but if you message me I can give you a working discount code.

Has anyone gotten these and done color matched Summit White? I have always been a fan of color matched splitter/side skirts but can't decide if I want to get these and get them painted, or stick with no side skirts.

If you have it please post pics!!!

As a matter of fact, when I dropped these off with my painter, I specifically told him to paint them Gloss black, however he painted them summit white instead. They looked fabulous, however I had him repaint them because it wasn't how I asked for them. Sorry, I didn't install to take pics while they where white.
