Edit: They are RS rocker panles, not mugen copies.

I did a test fit before sending them down to the body shop. They do fit well, no heavy moding. They seem like they are a direct copy of the oem ones. But I cant confirm that unless I get a good pic of the RS OEMs. They come with brackets and hardware. But I will add for security 3m double sided tape.

Ill post pics of the install next week.

Looks good, you could probably flush up the fitment on the back wheelwell by ovaling the mounting points and pulling that in a bit.

What front lip or bumper are you getting to match? Or are you happy with your front splitter and the skirts together?

Haha. The only thing holding it up in the pic is a fabric softener box. It was just a quick pick. Haven't mounted anything yet.

I'm actually not happy that I went all white. I regret not keeping the black bar. The rocker covers "look much lower" (and out of place) when they are painted solid. The black bar would have hidden that some. Maybe Ill have the body shop repaint them with the bar....

The other option is to paint the carbon lip.
