EOI : BG lip and skirt package

Hi guys and gals with BG's! in the next couple of months i plan to make a custom lip and skirt package for my astina, why? because most things on the market are outragous in design and destroy the lines of the car!

Basically what i am looking at doing is creating a set of straight, plain side skirts with three simple vents at the back, and a front and rear lip that hangs approx 5 -10 cm from the front of the car.

this would not be a replacentment bumper, merly an add on kit.

this is not an order form, but i am looking for serious interest please! Who here would be interested in this sort of package (design depending), and what do you think is a fair price to pay (considering that a front bar retails for $450 ish and skirts are $350 a pair). Would be sold in prepped fibreglass

I think the front is going to be the hardest. Skirts will be simple...there are a few out there already that are quite ok, plus I'm pretty sure we can use laser ones. SSV make a nice simple skirt.

My personal taste is these skirts;

Or a custom set of EVOIII skirts with the EVOLUTION bogged and smoothed.

This rear bar extention (yes it'd have to be matched to the above skirts, but you get the idea);
http://www.ath-hinsberger.de/athshop/images/m_40017.jpg

And for the front, I've always liked the EVOIII front lip. It'd be similar to the pic above, but with the stock bumper....might not work though with the double holes. :S

It's something I haven't put alot of thought into because I've always spent my money elsewhere...but the fact you think like me with not wanting to distroy the lines of the car is appealing.

rob, side skirts will be a lot more plain than that, but nothing stopping you mixing and matching?

thanks for posting the picture burbon, yes that is the kind of look i am trying to achieve, but i will make it indervidual enough as to not copy someone elses work

ok CRA23 that lip you posted is a good one...but from what nate was tryin to achieve i think was keep it in the lines of the car...the front of the BG is a bit more sharper from what i see anyway....im up for somethin closer to the one nate was origionally thinkin of
