side skirts
Has anyone painted their stock side skirts/rear bumper skirt? How did they come out? Any problems w/ chipping, etc? I've got a 00 base model and have been looking for aftermarket skirts w/ a similar style to the stock skirts but haven't found anything I like.

If you're talking a DIY paint job, I suggest against it. But if you're talking getting them painted at a body shop....why not :dunno:
Its the same as getting anything else on your car painted. Yes there will be minor chipping but overall you'll improve the look of your car two-fold IMO.
I dun see the dilemma here? :thinking:

I personally like the Wing's West RS body kit, basically extends the dimensions of the stock look. Check it out RS Bodykit the best bodykit for the 5th Gen IMO, Mugen is a close second.

They can be painted. It should take ~1 weekend to get it done.
To minimize/eliminate chipping, use an adhesion promoter and don't put the skirts back on until the paint has a little time to cure.
