Well, I am pretty sure that I am going to go ahead and have GP Sports Side Skirts painted and installed on my S2000 ... I think the rear drop provided by the TS Diffuser gives a better flowing body line with the rear of the GP Sports Side Skirts

I can always pull off the diffuser (not ) and install the GP Sports rear panels.

Enlarge the pic to 1600 x 1200 for a better look.

I took a good look at the full size version. My main concern is the front line of the car. From the rear angle I cant get a feel for how the front flows into the side skirt from this angle it doesnt seem that fluid although once it's black the lines will flow much more naturally.

Still I'd like to see this same perspective from the front to get a good feel for how well they match up.

As for the rear the photograph doesnt allow the diffusor to be very visible I would bet that in real life the diffusor is very apparent and the skirt will match well with it once it's painted.

As always you continue to make my Berlina look ghetto

Jason,

From the front ...

From the side the bottom of the J's lip creates an upward angle that flows nicely into the GP Sports Sides ... hard to tell with black paint in pics.

You are planning to use the door inserts, right?

Ah, thats the exact angle I was hoping for.

From the back it looked like there was a slight flare to the front like there is in the back but it was really just a trick of the angle, the transition is smooth and subtle.

I really like it! Good choice in skirts, can't wait to see it painted. Your paint guy really seems to do a top notch job
