what T3man said.

if you get some fibreglass copies, you can just shorten them yourself if you know what you are doing, then they fit.

For $5 it's worth a shot surely. Cut what you need out of the front and plastic weld the 'cap' (bit that blocks all the road rubbish from the wheel well) back onto the front. Give it a good sanding to remove the traces of the cut (fiberglass the back for added strength if you want) and paint.

I've seen an AU in Newcastle sporting a set of Bseries XR side skirts. Looked great!

Yep yep ... for the right price they can be made to fit - they are easily cut and shut. If you have a mate in a panel shop it might cost you a carton of beers for the resize. They will get their money out of you for the paint work anyhow. Or if he's a real good mate you might get that done for another carton.
