if i was you mate, i think id go for gsi skirts, they look something a bit like those that are in he diagram, plus you can get them quite cheap., [ ya might be luvky to get them in the same colour aswell], youll probably be looking at about Â£120 for a set of skirts and arches, the archs aren\'t needed but they blend into the skirts better than the standard arches. you should be able to pick some gsi skirts up for less than Â£100, prolly about Â£70 on a good day. this is what they look like on a flame red corsa btw.

are these the m3 skirts

also I\'m imagining that would suit ma car once its fully colour coded as they look a bit extended at the ends which id imagine those dark bits are in fact the wheel arches

Right ??

irmscher b ones are nice, but there a bit expensive i think, spose quality comes at a price. well worth it though imo.
