Side Skirts

CAR SIDE SKIRTS AND SIDE SKIRT EXTENSIONS

Car side skirts are one of the most effective exterior upgrades for creating a lower, longer and more performance-focused side profile. Installed along the lower sills between the front and rear wheels, they visually connect the front splitter with the rear diffuser and help give the vehicle a more complete, balanced appearance.

Our collection includes carbon fibre side skirts, gloss black side skirt extensions, side blades and aerodynamic sill upgrades for a wide range of performance cars, saloons, coupes, hatchbacks, estates and SUVs. Whether you are building a subtle OEM+ vehicle or completing a full exterior transformation, EURO TUNED offers carefully selected styling components for different models and design preferences.

CARBON FIBRE SIDE SKIRTS

Carbon fibre side skirts combine lightweight construction with a premium motorsport-inspired finish. They are especially popular on performance vehicles where owners want the side profile to match carbon fibre front splitters, rear diffusers, spoilers, mirror covers and other exterior components.

Depending on the product, carbon fibre side skirt upgrades may feature:

Gloss-finished carbon fibre construction
Replacement side skirt sections
Bolt-on side skirt extensions
Model-specific mounting positions
OEM-inspired or motorsport-style shapes
Raised fins, blades or rear extensions

Carbon weave direction, surface finish and overall shape should be considered when combining side skirts with other carbon fibre parts. Matching components across the front, side and rear of the vehicle helps create a cleaner and more professionally finished exterior.

GLOSS BLACK SIDE SKIRT EXTENSIONS

Gloss black side skirt extensions offer an aggressive appearance without requiring a full carbon fibre styling package. They work particularly well with factory black trim, gloss black front splitters, rear diffusers, grilles and de-chromed exterior details.

Gloss black side extensions can provide a strong contrast against lighter body colours while blending naturally with darker vehicles. They are a popular choice for daily-driven cars where owners want a sharper profile with a clean, factory-inspired finish.

Available designs may include straight extensions, sculpted side blades, raised rear sections and more pronounced motorsport-influenced shapes.

HOW SIDE SKIRTS CHANGE A VEHICLE’S APPEARANCE

Aftermarket side skirts visually reduce the space between the lower body and the road, creating the appearance of a lower stance even when the suspension remains unchanged. They can also make the vehicle look longer and help balance aggressive front and rear styling components.

A complete exterior package commonly combines:

Front splitter or front lip
Front bumper extensions or canards
Side skirt extensions or side blades
Rear diffuser
Boot spoiler or roof spoiler
Mirror covers and exterior trim

Side skirts are especially useful when a vehicle already has a large front splitter or rear diffuser, as they help connect both ends of the styling package and prevent the side profile from appearing unfinished.

SIDE SKIRTS FOR BMW, AUDI, MERCEDES-AMG AND OTHER PERFORMANCE CARS

EURO TUNED supplies aftermarket side skirts for popular European and Japanese performance vehicles. Product availability may include:

BMW side skirts and side skirt extensions
Audi S and RS side skirts
Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG side skirts
Volkswagen GTI and Golf R side extensions
Toyota GR Supra carbon fibre side skirts
Porsche side skirt extensions
Selected performance SUV side blades
Additional model-specific exterior styling components

Each vehicle platform uses different sill dimensions, mounting points and body shapes. Products should always be selected according to the exact make, model, chassis code, body style and production period.

BMW SIDE SKIRT EXTENSIONS

BMW side skirt extensions are available for a wide range of M cars, M Performance models and standard BMW platforms. Popular applications may include the BMW M2, M3, M4, M5, M8, 1 Series, 2 Series, 3 Series, 4 Series and selected BMW X models.

Designs can range from subtle M Performance-inspired extensions to wider carbon fibre side blades with raised rear fins. Saloon, Coupe, Convertible, Touring and Gran Coupe models may use different side skirt lengths or mounting points, even when they belong to the same vehicle generation.

Parts developed for an M model should not automatically be assumed to fit an M Sport or standard-body vehicle. Factory sill design and body width must always be checked before ordering.

AUDI SIDE SKIRTS AND SIDE BLADES

Audi side skirts can complement the sharp body lines and understated styling of Audi S and RS models. Carbon fibre or gloss black side extensions are commonly combined with front splitters, rear diffusers and boot or roof spoilers to create a more aggressive OEM+ appearance.

Fitment may vary between Audi A, S and RS models, as well as between Saloon, Sportback, Avant, Coupe and SUV body styles. Standard, S line and RS bodywork can also use different lower sill profiles.

Pre-facelift and facelift models should be treated as separate applications unless the product specifically confirms compatibility with both versions.

MERCEDES-AMG SIDE SKIRT EXTENSIONS

Mercedes-AMG side skirt extensions can enhance the lower body line and create a stronger visual connection between an AMG-style front splitter and rear diffuser. Available options may include carbon fibre extensions, gloss black side blades and more aggressive aerodynamic designs.

Standard Mercedes-Benz, AMG Line and full Mercedes-AMG vehicles can use different factory side skirts. Saloon, Coupe, Estate, Cabriolet and SUV variants may also require model-specific components.

The exact chassis code, production year and original exterior package should always be confirmed before purchasing Mercedes side skirt upgrades.

TOYOTA GR SUPRA SIDE SKIRTS

Toyota GR Supra A90 side skirts enhance the low, sculpted profile of the MK5 Supra and work especially well with a carbon fibre front splitter and rear diffuser. Available designs may include subtle extensions, raised side blades and more aggressive motorsport-style components.

Choosing a matching carbon weave and surface finish helps create a consistent exterior package across the front, sides and rear of the vehicle. Mounting method, production year and compatibility with any existing body-kit components should be reviewed before purchase.

SIDE SKIRTS FOR SALOONS, COUPES, ESTATES AND SUVS

Body style is an important factor when choosing aftermarket side skirt extensions. Vehicles within the same model family may use different wheelbases, sill lengths and lower body designs.

Common body-style differences include:

Saloon and Coupe side skirt lengths
Coupe and Convertible sill construction
Estate or Touring rear-body dimensions
Three-door and five-door hatchback layouts
Standard-wheelbase and long-wheelbase vehicles
SUV and Sportback lower-body trim

A product that looks visually similar may still use different mounting holes, contours or overall dimensions. The exact listed body style should always match the vehicle.

SIDE SKIRT EXTENSIONS VS REPLACEMENT SIDE SKIRTS

Side skirt extensions attach beneath or alongside the existing factory sill, allowing the original body component to remain in place. They are often easier to install and provide a noticeable styling change without replacing the complete factory side skirt.

Replacement side skirts substitute a larger section of the original exterior panel. These components can create a more integrated appearance but may require additional installation time, removal of factory trim and more detailed alignment.

The product description should always be checked to determine whether the component is an extension, overlay, add-on blade or complete replacement part.

SIDE SKIRT INSTALLATION

Installation requirements vary according to the design of the side skirt and the vehicle. Some products use factory mounting locations, while others may require screws, bolts, clips, adhesive tape or a combination of fixing methods.

Typical installation considerations include:

Correct alignment along the factory sill
Cleaning and preparing mounting surfaces
Checking door and wheel clearance
Confirming front and rear positioning
Using suitable corrosion-resistant fixings
Allowing adhesive products to cure fully
Checking all mounting points after installation

Professional fitting is recommended where drilling, trimming or permanent body modification is required. Dry-fitting the product before installation helps confirm alignment and identify any adjustments before the part is secured.

GROUND CLEARANCE AND EVERYDAY USE

Side skirt extensions sit lower and further outward than the standard bodywork, meaning additional care may be required around kerbs, ramps, speed bumps, workshop lifts and narrow parking spaces.

More aggressive designs can reduce practical ground clearance, particularly on lowered vehicles. Suspension height, wheel fitment and normal driving conditions should be considered when choosing the depth and width of a side skirt design.

Drivers should also ensure that lifting points remain accessible and that workshop technicians understand how to position lifting equipment without damaging the extensions.

CARING FOR CARBON FIBRE AND GLOSS BLACK SIDE SKIRTS

Regular cleaning helps protect carbon fibre and gloss black side skirts from road dirt, tar, salt and brake dust. Because these components are positioned close to the road, they can collect more contamination than upper body panels.

Use suitable automotive cleaning products and avoid harsh brushes that may scratch the surface. Protective sealants or ceramic coatings can make future cleaning easier and help maintain the finish.

Mounting points should be inspected periodically, particularly after driving on rough roads or after contact with a kerb, ramp or road debris.

CHOOSING THE CORRECT SIDE SKIRTS

Before purchasing car side skirts online, confirm compatibility with the exact vehicle. Important fitment details may include:

Vehicle make and model
Exact chassis code and generation
Production year
Pre-facelift or facelift design
Saloon, Coupe, Convertible, Estate, Hatchback or SUV body style
Standard, sport, M Sport, S line, AMG Line or full performance bodywork
Short-wheelbase or long-wheelbase configuration
Factory side skirt and sill design
Existing body-kit or aerodynamic components

Registration year alone may not always confirm the exact vehicle version. Products should be checked using the chassis code, production date and original body specification whenever possible.

Customers requiring additional fitment assistance can contact EURO TUNED with their vehicle model, chassis code, production year, registration number, photographs or VIN.
