so ive been thinking about this for a while so i decided the other day at work i was going to make some out of card board what do you guys think

benoit454 · 10-22-2010, 06:36 PM

no way, not my tastes at all I hate them fender skirts with a passion on anything, never liked them.

If you do though, it's your truck.

Jonboy · 10-22-2010, 06:37 PM

They used to sell them once upon a time in JC Whitney for our trucks. You might check out that route.

81ratrodc10 · 10-22-2010, 06:43 PM

just trying to get a feel for what people think

StreetCoupe · 10-22-2010, 07:12 PM

I sold this a few months ago but it had a set of optional skirts that came with it. There was a company that used to make these but I don't think they're still in business.Maybe these can help you decide.I would vote to keep them optional.

sandnuriz · 10-22-2010, 07:23 PM

No Way on a old car yeah! but on a truck no way!

THE "10" SILVERADO · 10-22-2010, 07:31 PM

My taste says no...but it's yours to do what you please

str8axle55 · 10-22-2010, 07:55 PM

**PRattenbury** · 10-22-2010, 07:56 PM

Gotta have the spare tire deal to go on the tailgate to make it a complete continental kit.

ratty 46 · 10-22-2010, 09:31 PM

Just my opinion.

babyJay · 10-22-2010, 09:41 PM

I'd have to say majority rules, and I tend to agree. Not my taste either, but hey, it's your truck to drive so make it the way you want and drive the wheels off of it.

YBNORML · 10-22-2010, 09:59 PM

Skirts are for chicks,

not trucks

^^^^^^^^^

I'm with him !

wklink · 10-23-2010, 12:58 AM

Just make sure you can get them off easily for that inevitable flat.

I have them on my 62 Thunderbird but they aren't my taste for my truck. Then again, my truck is used as, well as a truck.

Whatever you want is cool by me. Just because it isn't my cup of non fat latte doesn't mean you shouldn't go for it.

Hubscrub · 10-23-2010, 01:24 AM

if you likey ok, i'm not so sure

KainRahl · 10-23-2010, 02:16 AM
