I've heard some people talk about the sticking out issue..however, even the oem ones kinda stick out so I can see what you mean. I am a clean freak n married so the only lady getting in my car will be punished for any deodorant on my seats or other errors of the female persuasion. My daughter on the other hand will probably step on the damn thing to get in....I'll have to try and train her too to behave around my other baby

I love my ladies but they just don't understand

It's really expensive, even at MitsuParts.net which is much cheaper than the dealership... don't think it's really worth that much cash... but I gotta admit it makes the car look really sick... my friend at work has it in his WW and we always leave work around the same time... It's glorious to see his whip dipping on the highway with the kit... makes it look really, really good!

I'd buy it if I had the extra $1,500 lying around...

What I did get for cheap was the Spoiler extension from rexpeed for $50 bucks painted fits just like stock

I switched my non-aero side skirts to the aero kit about a year ago and I havent had any problems, even going through an upstate New York winter they've held fast. They bolt onto the car so short of anyone stepping on them I think you'll be fine.

If you have the 2010/2011 side skirts, they flare out quite nicely and already look like a body kit compared to the 2008. It's your call how you want to spend $900

What is the part number on those aeros? My left one got damaged in an accident couple of nights ago when some dude hit my car. I think its MZ380434EX but I just wanted to be sure.

Picture of the spoiler lip!?! I've been thinking of doing the same thing. Did you order the FG one already painted or a CF one and had it painted?

I was never really keen on fiber glass parts. I'm way too paranoid about them cracking. Anyone had any problems with this spoiler attachment breaking/cracking?

Has anyone ever ordered stuff from www.mitsparts.com? I searched for some stuff there (I want the oem front air dam and rear corner) and it is surprising but their shipping said $11.11 when I just put the aero side skirts (price before shipping $755.94), when I tried it on mitsubishiparts.net it came back as $119.62 for shipping.

Here is a link to a list of parts on mitsparts:

I'd like to hear of any experiences with them.

My evo came with the full oem aero kit , I eventually removed the front lip , kept the rear corners and the big skirts and they look great with my 18x10.5 wheels. I was worried about the sides looking lower than the front of the car but it doesnt , there is still sufficient symmetry.

I'll buy your factory non sss side skirts if you're selling them for cheap. I've been looking for months for an 11 GSR

Non-aero side skirt part # for 2011 MR

Guys,

I have a 2011 MR which sustained minor damage/scrapes on the passenger side. I have the non-aero side skirts, but they are beefy and rounded (not-squared off). I need to replace the right side side skirt, but I cannot find the part number anywhere, and my Mitsu dealer has been worthless... Can you point me toward the correct website? I looked up part# MZ380434EX, but I believe these are for aero side-skirts. I need exactly the same as what is depicted in the photo of the blue Evo X in this thread.

thank you in advance! I am really about to give up and go with the old style (squarish) side skirts.

Cheers,
Steev
