this is the result of hitting a puddle at 50mph when you cant avoid it due to other traffic.
1 gsi replica skirt missing! we found it on the way home still in the puddle. we didnt realise just how deep the puddle was untill we went back. by this time it was abit too late as someone else had done the same but had run over the skirt. ive got all the parts but its behond repair now.
its nothing major but enough to put a downer on a good sat night out.
next up.... what to replace them with? irmscher? some more replica skirts (fitted propperly)?steinmetz?
