Those sideskirts remind me of the prodrive version STi of that year.

You know, I always wondered what STi skirts on a bugeye would look like, and I gotta say, I'm really not a big fan. I think the stock skirts look better and stock skirts plus the Canadian (or whatever country they were originally from) extensions that go behind the wheel wells look the best (ala Porkchop's car).

I think the STi skirts look quite a bit better than the big ol' pontoons that keep falling off my car, if it weren't for the gaping holes left I'd probably just let them fall off and forget about it, but for now, half a roll of gaffers tape is keeping them hanging there.

I think you do quite a bit more offraoding than I ever did, so I never ran into that problem. Do the STi skirts fall off any less easy? Not being a huge fan of body kits/ground effects in general I like the look of the new WRXs. No real skirt to speak of, just a nice clean rocker panel. The only reason I like the stock skirts on the bugeyes is because they give the appearance of a lower car compared to the STi skirt on the same car.
