Alright, put me down for a set! It would prob be a good idea though to start a new thread if you want people to notice this has some potential now.

Swilson, I hope you still have a set left. I have a new attack plan to make these work.

Ken
Ken I would definitely get a set off of you. I have an OEM set sitting in my garage but they have broken up yellow paint on them from the car they were on in Japan and they look like they're going to be a bitch to refinish.

Let's start a new thread in here and get this rolling.

Indeed they are
I finally painted mine after two years
If i didnt have a freind that did body work, it would have cost me over $1K to get finished (not including the skirts themselves which i spent $350 on)
My neighbor spent over 45 hours refinishing these skirts. He did not have to mount them on the car to get painted. He was able to paint them off the car using this new flex primer he found

Needless to say, i will not be parting ways my OEM side skirt set up

This is dead right? I thought Ken said he threw away the molds. Someone that bought the replicas from him the first time needs to pony up the goods and let him remake them please

Sorry I don't come here often and missed Ken's posts in December....
I still have my set of these sitting in the garage, painted but never installed...

To restate the problem they have the notorious twist at the wheel well arch.

Ken PM sent.

As an update, I exchanged emails with Ken on this.
He says that my paint would be trashed if he were to use mine for the new molds.
He also explained how to fix the twist issue so I can install mine.

So what he is looking for is an unpainted set of the original batch of Shine skirts (not real OEM).

How much did it cost to paint them? Maybe we could factor the repaint into the price of the product since I'm sure there would be at least a dozen + people who wouldn't mind paying a few extra dollars to get it done.

Wonder if an unpainted Shine skirt even exists..

I had the whole car done when these were painted so I don't know exactly.
They are black with a clear coat. My guess is that it would be at least a couple of hundred bucks to have them redone depending on the "damage" from making the molds.

Someone has to have these? Everyone ask your friends!

Also, Ken (if you're reading) would these be 1 piece? Rather than OEM 2 piece?

Would love a set of these, as well as the OEM rear spats.

I'm sure if this thread was in a move visible place, say the 3rd gen section, we could get a lot of interest going, but I'm not sure if that's "legal" or not. It would be a sweet addition to what Shine offers for the FD IMO.
