authentic Knightsports Sideskirts?

Hey Guys...
I was thinking of adding the Knightsports side skirts this spring.... Yes
the ones that have a little air scoop in them. I've seen on a few web-sites one's that are sold as replicas as well.

What's the Difference? Looks wise? Build quality? How can I tell if they send me the original or a fake? thanks for the replies jc.

Real KnightSports kits are gel coated white and are thin translucent looking FG.

Copies are grey, thick and heavy. The mesh is usually large diamond cut like the stuff at Home Depot.

Check Racing Beat too. I believe they are the style sides, the RB will be cheaper, made out of FG, but unlike most replicas, you can pretty much count on RB sides fitting your car w/o any problems.

Hi ccw998!

You can try www.rx7fashion.com. They have lotts. Not sure of the Prices compared to any other shops.
I had a look at some of the Racing Beat stuff and they look like Knock Offs. Will the real Kightsport kits have a stamp or some sort of marking to tell you they are the real kits?

Please reply you guys with these real kits.... thanks jc.

Get the fake stuff.

Its cheaper and looks really cool like my fake glass eye. I have a knock off fake eye and it gives the perfect Samy Davis Jr. effect.

Racing Beat has been dealing with 7s for MANY years, and while the style may be a knock off and it will be fiberglass, the fitting will be perfect. Just so you know they are not cheap knock offs that have never seen a 7 to begin with.

Anyone with Pics? Either real or fake Knightsports side skirts...?
Can you really tell if they are the real deal or not?

The Racing Beat ones are really inexspensive and are probally the one's I'll end up with. But anyone have any comments good or bad?
thanks jc
