I made these at home and the cost of everything was $27

I’m going to get better ones but for now they will do.

I put the red stripe on the side of them to make them kinda pop out a bit. It’s just pinstripe tape.
What did you use to make it? It looks great!

Looks really good. Considering how expensive side skirts are you can start your own business lol.

This is the one I bought. https://www.homedepot.com/p/LWM623-...-Jointed-Pine-Base-Moulding-HDPP623/203364799

They won’t cut it for you so measure your trim and how much you need and they have a place to cut it yourself inside.

What I did was light sanding primer and 4 coats of gloss black and 3 coats of clear.

The part that’s angled down is the part that’s not shown so under your car. Also make sure you check for the best ones because some are very damaged and you don’t want that. If you have any other questions let me know.

The link you provided goes to "Primed Finger-Jointed Pine Base Moulding", not plastic as previously mentioned. I looked at a couple stores & HD says it's not currently sold in stores & delivery is unavailable. Is the link for the correct item?

Oh shit. Yeah my bad this is what I got. Sorry was looking up without having it saved and it looks pretty much the same. Here is the link. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Royal-M...e-Colonial-Base-Moulding-0552308056/100092590

More saving, more doing... That's the power of the Home Depot.
