the rear door sheet metal is shaped differently on the 2003 evolution, therefore I don't think the side skirt on an 03 evo would fit an 02-03 lancer

No they won't, u can take it to a shop and have it custom fit but they are way bigger than oz skirts in height, so unless u have a VIII bumper fit with fenders too, u will be the first to have sideskirts lower than ur front and rear bumper lol

Thanks guys for helping me out.
I'm going to meet up with a buddy that owns a VIII this weekend and we can do some measuring. I can always customize them if they're a little off.

Thanks for the offer Dave, but I want something as close to stock as possible. I plan on keeping the front bumper and I already have the stock rear bumper. If you can give me a deal I can't resist on some skirts then let me know.

Thanks again guys

I marked the skirts down 60% not interested? I thought you might be interested because those side skirts are very stock looking, it doesn't have the vent because you need to cut it as that customer did in the gallery, its also keep tighter and higher to the chassis. I dunno i think its a great option..

So there is no vent? And it's not as wide as the ones I have now right? I want something nice but doesn't stick out or hang super low.

Correct, No Vent, not wide but very trim. And also closer to OEM height, The only reason why we dont advertise it, is because we sell a lot of conversions as you know..

And for conversions we go for lower skirts and vents, to match up to the lower rear bumper etc..

Its a good option for you so I am putting it out there, And if you dont think im offering you a good price check some vendors here and online.

Oh I've been checking like crazy, that's why I was about to convert to the Evo VIII skirts.
But the ones you're offering me would look good with my front bumper and stock rear.

I had Evo 8 Skirts.. They dont fit.
Their longer, so they need to be cut; and the Evo is wider, so at the front-end the sideskirt protrudes outward to meet
the wider fender. Its not straight like the OZ.
Dont waste your time & money tryin' to fit an Evo Skirt on a Lancer.
Im tellin' you from experience.
