Side skirts/sills

Post by kenny » Tue May 13, 2008 9:04 pm

Quick question, are the side skirts/sills the same on both the Elise and Exige?

Reckon the must be - they certainly look identical. And of course they are bonded to the tub, just to make repair nice and difficult/expensive :evil:

Ta, thats what I thought just wanted to make sure. If I can find the required section at the scrappies the repair will be relatively cheap if not then its going to cost a packet (for my insurers) :evil:

Kenny, they are the same, the sill on my car came off an elise and fitted fine no probs. Just went into douglas valley with a grinder.

Yay, sill sourced and ordered, should be here in a couple of days. Not as cheap as I had hoped but still going to work out cheaper than going through insurance. :D
