Guest SiV6Si Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 They do sit a bit funny, Never heard of trimming them thou, On the RS the whole skirt sits flush as the Cills are angled more under the car, On the Cabby the same Cill is almost vertically down, so the skirt will sit out an angle you will notice the front of the Skirt sits out proudly from the cill on the cabby, but hugs the cill on the RS RS Cabby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escort Cabriolet Club Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 They will look silly mate as there squared off and suit the RS2000 kit where as the Mk6 is rounded and smooth !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escort Cabriolet Club Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 The Mk5 ones will look silly and square, the ones on mine and Si's Cabs are Mk6 GTi/RS2000 skirts and look fine and don't stick out that much !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SiV6Si Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Or get some Cabby Skirts as they were an optional extra on some cabbys, they are rounded and moulded to fit the Cabby perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escort Cabriolet Club Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The Cabby Skirts are quite rare, keep an eye on ebay mate, also the spats will be on ebay, go genuine, the replicas are a little wank, just search for 'escort spats' !!!
