Which side skirts and rear bumper?

I am 100% committed to the C-West front bumper w/carbon canards, but I can't find a set of side skirts and rear bumper to complete the set. The Veilside rear bumper isn't bad, but I'd prefer something 1-piece. Ideally, I'd like a diffuser for the lower section. For the sides, I just want something clean that will lower the car visually to match the drop height of the front bumper. Any suggestions out there?

The Gialla front is terrible but the sides look unobtrusive in that pic

Does Veilside make a rear bumper that fits our USDM rear bumper? Our rear bumper is totally different than theirs.. I like the JDM ones much more.. it is sleeker

That might be because they are the stock side skirts.

Exactly...

The only side "skirts" I've seen beside the C-West ones are from Veilside and they are some sort of vestigial mudguard things.

I will figure something out. Rubelcon - I'll trade jobs with you if I get the Skyline...

Chris. Use your money for HP.

While sideskirts and front bumpers might look cool for a while, the fashion of any particular part goes out of style muuch too quickly IMHO.

HP never goes out of style!

SC - You should know I have the HP angle covered, and besides, performance mods are a different budget altogether. Let's see, HP budget, Wheel/tire/brake budget, looks budget, ummm.... oh yeah, rent, bills, etc.

Chris,

You may want to bide your time for a little while, see what else comes out.

I'm sure Varis, Creative Sports, Valdi, and perhaps Trust & GP Sports will have something for the Evo VIII. It sucks b/c the WRX has a LOT of selection between ShineStreet, ChargeSpeed, C-West, etc. Why aren't cos. showing the Evo VIII any love?
