TSX skirts on a CL

First of all do TSX side skirts (OEM) go lower than ours

Second, I was wondering how hard they would be to modify to fit the CL

how do you think they would look, The reason I ask is because I can get some for $30

Im ok with the install ( I think I will just have to shave the ends a little and they probably go on by using the same mounting as the old ones) but im wondering if they are lower and would actually look nice??

You can make anything fit if you have the time, materials, and money. The CL's don't have any kind of body kit to speak of so anything would make it look lower. 30 bucks def wouldn't be a bad investment for something new!

Thats OEM. Theres really no way to say if they hang lower until you put them up next to the car.

those still roll inward. part of the aggressive, aero look is that fact that the skirts are more square. this along with some body contour lines in the skirt change the look. just a lower hanging, smooth skirt will not provide the effect you are looking for.

like these?



the tsx mugen sides are very similar to the TL aeros.


i'm sure the skirts share a similar attachment method but they will still need to be cut and overlaid onto the stock CL ones. personally the TL aero kit sides looks more aggressive. you might also run into some fitment issues along the top of the rocker where the skirt tucks under the body some. i had to add filler to get the gap between the skirt and body panel even. like someone else said above, it can be done! just some extra work beyond the TL kit.
