Postby turdbo » Tue Jul 08, 2014 10:17 pm

Hi guys.
Sure this has been covered ( many times ) before,
But im after any info on side skirts and front lips.
Ive seen afew online, were these and optional extra, made by an aftermarket manufacture or custom made?
I have a few pics about what i meen but cant seem to upload pics :P.

Any info would be grand, id like to get all the bits and bobs i can before i start doing the body work prep etc.

Cheers,

Otherwise kits for other cars u can mod to fit? Finding another City for sale that already has a kit on it?...

Info base has some great information.
viewforum.php?f=1

Here's the Honda optional extras brochure. Front and rear lip's are on second page.
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4336

Rear lips are fairly common, front lip is harder to find, haven't seen any around for quite a few years...

Sideskirts were done by aftermarket manufacturers. Extremely rare to find any for a T2. I have seen only one set in New Zealand and only a couple on japanese cars (other then custom widebody T2R kits).

To be honest your going to be struggling to find any aftermarket bits for these cars and if you do condition will probably not be super great.

That is all really great info!
So the only real aftermarket ulternative is in the post anthraxxx made ^ ^ ^.
I could also look at sculpting a mold aswell

Yep, that one is the first time I've seen one for sale on an auction site.

I think you are going to have to do a mold.

Although what someone else did was weld extra metal to the sill instead of an making one up.

My hair-brained idea is still to get hold of some front Quarters from one of these :

oh wow they are massive! i would be keen to see them stitched on some how.
Well maybe i will have a crack at making some molds.i have afew friends who did car design at uni in albany and they have all the kit for plastic molds etc.

If i do end up making some good molds i will keep them and make others no sweat
