94 Accord Side Skirts & Lips w/ Prelude Mud Flaps - NEW PICS
UPDATED WITH MORE PICS 7-7-2010
There have been a lot of posts about the Accord Side Skirts lately so I finally decided to post my pics of how I did mine. I know there are other how to's on here but I never did like the way they stuck out so I tucked my up onto the rocker panel and made them meet up cleanly with the mud flap. There have been a few of you (2nd One) waiting for me to post these but I had originally wanted to wait unitl I was finished with the car so I could get pictures from better angles than the ones limited by my over stuffed garage. Anyhow here it goes.
I started from the back and worked my way forward. The factory OEM 94 Accord EX 4 dr sideskirt was used and all pictures are off the passenger side (I wish I could have photod the drivers side since I did this side first the drivers side turned out a little nicer with some sharper/closer lines). Red lines annotate a cut. All screws were stainless and washers were used on the bottom and all screws were sealed with silicone. I cut the skirt with a pnuematic cut off wheel. Made a mess but it cut well and fast while giving me good control. Most of the cuts are at odd angles so there is a lot of going back and forth on and off the car to get it right. I didn't want to mess my skirts up. I did this about nine months ago and it took me about 3-4 hours to do both sides. The skirts are painted with Krylon Semi Flat black paint.
And here we go from the back

The skirt kind of wedges unto the rocker panel and is screwed from the bottom. The door being shut pretty much holds the top. It is pinched on there pretty well even with the door open. You will see what I am talking about once you start fitting it. When in place on the rocker there is a white stripe between the skirt and the sill plate. I did not like the way it looked so I painted it the same color as the skirt.
The factory edge continues towards the front of the car until it meets with the front fender.

Here is the rear where the 94 Accord rear lip meets up with the factory Prelude mudflaps.
Here are some more complete shots of the skirts installed on the car. This is just about as crooked as I can get my car in the garage. If you look at the pictures closely you will see why I don't want to push it out of the garage as it would be a pain in the ass to get it back in. It also kind of sucks that the sun/shadow is making a stripe down the middle. It is also kind of hard to picture how it will look on the ground with the K-Sports on. As soon as I get the work done I will get it outside and take some better ones but this will have to do for now.
