Default Roush Side Skirts Question

I just bought some roush sideskirts but im not planning on doing the side exhaust anytime soon i just love how low there skirts are and didnt want to miss out on the great deal i got..wellquestion isi was wondering if anyone has made some sort of grill or chicken wire to put in place of the side exhaust exit gap in the skirt or do you guys think it'll look horrible?

Done correctly and tastefully it should look OK.
It shouldn't be too hard to do.

I would just wait and get side exhaust before putting the side skirts on.

+1 probably just wait, but i know how it is when you get something new and you want it on your car right then...

I miss my side exhaust though... The only thing i dont miss about it is scraping and the sound.. My flows sound so much better than the borla side exhaust. If I would have had those side skirts though, i would of left the side exhaust on.

dont put them on unless you get the side exhaust. oh and i hope if your running side exhaust you dont plan on lowering your car or putting sub frames on it. when you lower it you will scrape on everything, and subframes wont fit. just to let you know ahead of time.


just dump the ehxuast buy the tips and just stick the tips in there.

Yeah i would MUCH rather have STRONG subframe connectors than side exhaust. . . .but if they made SVO side exhaust for 99-04's i have em in a heartbeat!

do you have a new bumper to put on after you do the side exaust? i've seen a few cars that didn't and it looks retarded to me. i'm sure a v-6 guy would love to trade!
