2011up MIC (molded in color) lower skirts/valance will fit on '08-'10

Not sure if this one had a thread devoted to confirming it that they will fit. I had a local club member who wanted to put black skirts on their all white 2011. My dad decided to help them out and swap his skirts for theirs.

The side skirts are different but still fit fine as the tridion is the same on a '11up as a '08-'10. If in an accident they WILL break as compared to tearing. I had an example but threw away the broken one before I snapped a pic, I may have a pic of it somewhere.

Now for some pics, starting out as a before so you can see the difference. Sorry the car is dirty, didn't get a chance to clean it.

After

I like! That's good to know the MIC skirts will fit the older cars.
BTW Kermit, I like how you have two cars on the lift!

Thanks. The side skirts are two piece. Not sure how much it is to buy both pieces. I do like how they fit. The front valance actually cost the same as the '08-'10 black textured type - a nice surprise.

Getting mine the end of May. I have to replace the right rear fender first. It looks like somehow the car tangled with ten cats hanging on the rear for dear life. I have now clue as to where or when this happened. Probably some Butt Napkin scraped it in a parking lot.
Thank goodness for easily removable panels....

They do look better molded in color, but there is one issue, those color keyed panels don't come in the 08 blue.

Well scratch those hopes then. Black textured it is! They look better after being dragged through a NY Winter, anyway.

Thanks again for sharing Kermit, and thanks for the note gstreetcomic.
