I can vouch for V2 as being one of the most respected members of the forum, and one of the most innovative, too, and it is better to be on his good side than his bad side. He has done performance things with 944's most have not even attempted. He may have just been giving you an "engineering" opinion of the usefulness of those skirts. To me those skirts look more appropriate for a Japanese car than a German car and 944 taste would be towards smoother lines. Hopefully you weren't in love with them otherwise you wouldn't be selling them. I don't think any lines in the sand were crossed and I would take no umbrage to the comment.

Can’t believe all these discussions for my simple question. I’m pretty amazed.

You can write to GT-RACING Colorado and tell them the skirts they made years ago is junk and should go on Japan cars. Yeah, because obviously as you guys says they don’t know what they are doing.

These skirts was on my 951 for more than 10years. It wasn’t bad looking at all!! But now I would like without.

This is my last comment.

If an admin want to delete my thread go ahead anyways it’s full of stupid comments.

Pictures are old (maybe 5 years ago, at least) and aren't really good quality.

What makes you think they are from GT-Racing? I have their old catalogs going back to when they first opened and those are not listed anywhere.

Also they look a good fit and well made, GT-Racing products are made for the track so they are purposeful rather than aesthetically pleasing. On the back do they look like they were filed and sanded to get them to fit?

Could be AIR, they did some unique stuff.

Op, you can go to the Internet archive and look at back catalogs from various well-known manufacturers, probably your best route. It’s a bit 90’s techy but I’ve had luck in the past identifying unusual items this way. Here I’ll get you started:

Wayback AIR

A friend of me really thought it was made from GT-Racing but I sent them an email with the images and the owner told me this isn’t from them.

I’ll try to find old catalogs just for my personal knowledge. I’ll sold them as most of the side skirts price on the web. 🤷
