Aero skirts actually continue the outward bottom edge of the door. Much improved over factory skirts.
That's the bit im not sure about, the standard flat skirt accentuates the curve in the door while the aero versions seem to take away this aspect of the design-I don't dislike them but they seem to change the whole appearance of the car?

Come on Rob, we both know the aeros aren't the real problem here... the car just had too many cylinders for you :poke: :lol:
