An “Edition” allows you to make changes to the vehicle without mathematics.

Picked up a set of VW Thunderbunny side skirts (i got one of the last 4 sets in the US) last winter and had them painted painted last April. Now that the springs are on I figured it was time to install them.

They bolt up to the OE mounts along the rocker but the top edge has to be glued to the body, which results in a pucker level of 11/10.

It ended up being a lot easier than I figured though, even by myself. I didnt even have any urethane squeeze out the top.

Glued them on with this

Had to do a bunch of taping and some creative spacing / strapping to get the top edge behind the rear door to sit tight against the body. Ill probably undo everything sat am so it has plenty of time to cure.

Thanks. I really like them.

Unwrapped it this am. Took some pics outside this afternoon too. I was hoping to wash it but there just wasnt time. Not that it looks that dirty.

Picked up a set of 235/40/18 Hankook V12s. Little buldgey on the 7.5" rim, but they get the job done.

Very nice looking! I would look to see if this year was affected by the bad timing chain tensioners and have it changed before it fails. I like the wheel/tire combo
