Hey I've got a set of side skirts that look like saleen style side skirts, but I'm trying to figure out what company made them...

There is a sticker on the back of them that shows the part number being 14004.... and a made in Canada sticker on them also.

Any ideas??

I believe the saleen sideskirts are the same as the cobra side skirts. They are prob just some replicas of either one of them, any reason you need to know who made em? You could try checking where some of the companies make their products. Or check their part numbers, maybe cervinis, or ABC exclusive, etc.

As a guy with a saleen kit on his car, i thought the same exact thing, lol.
So i went and looked.

And wouldn't you know it, they are similar.
Except the cobra ones appear to be more than one piece, connected at the bottom of the door.
I know for a fact the saleen skirts are solid all the way across.

So my guess is that those are indeed cobra sideskirts.

I would agree about the Cobra side skirts, I have the Saleen kit on my car and the skirts are a one piece unit, they don't look like those.

They don't look cobra either IMHO.

Ignoring the 1 and 2 piece thing, they lack a "ridge" that the cbra gfx have at the bottom.




Saleen kits have more flare at the bottom, which is what those look like




However, most saleen kits I know of are 1 piece....but they look saleen to me.

Those don't look like Cobras to me either. Yes the Cobra side skirts are two piece and seperate behind the door but the top "body molding" is integrated in as one piece in the skirt like the GT's minus the GT scoop on the rear quarter part.

That looks like a Saleen skirt knock off. The Saleen skirts are one piece and are made of soft urethane. They are minus the upper body molding and are made to mount under the LX "body molding".

Are those fiberglass? Could be Cervinis?

They say they are made in Canada... has a sticker on them on the back sides...

They seem to be some type of plastic... might be fiberglass...

They really don't look the same to me, but you have them in person. They look more like saleen effects.


They just lack the little flare out that 93 cobra side skirts have



But you have them inmperson, I dont
