i think 2nd way looks better as the front is deeper than the rear and therefore the skirts will follow the line better

So according to PSG mine were on the wrong way, but then I think it looks better my way and Scoobs way.

I suppose its personal prefrence.

its the 2nd way round like OJC is trying to tell you lot!

1. Because PSG say so

2. More than likely the reason for the crossing of the two lines and the slightly high bit is so you can get on ramps easier as thats the arear thats lowest when driving onto a ramp, as its after the front wheels are on and before the rears are on

its the sma eprinciple as the arch in my reiger skirts!

looked on there first mate

thats what confused me because i saw that pic and then saw yours and scoobs.
So no ones feelings are hurt i offer them up to the car both ways and see which one i like best.

i had mine the right way, as if they are from PSG not replicas it should tell you under the skirt (which mine was says L and R)
