Side Skirts?

Thinking about getting Rw Carbon side skirts for m235i. Has anyone bought side skirts for their 2 series? Looking for opinions/pros/cons.

Thank you in advance

I think he's tagging first reply, which is something kids do on kid lists.

I haven’t installed side skirts, but do have experience wth RW Carbon. Installed their CF mirror covers and they clouded and bubbled in less than 6 months. If you do go that route, I would at least get them a good supplemental clear coat from a paint shop.

Thank you for the input! I have also heard of their mirror caps getting like that.

I had a poor experience with RW. I purchased CF mirror caps, front lip and read diffusor from AliExpress over a year ago and the parts look great.
