G35 Sport Side Sill vs Journey
I'm trying to see the difference between the side sills on my Journey compared to the "unique" side sills that are included with the Sport. There doesn't seem to be much difference? Am I missing something? Would one be able to order the Sport Side Sills (OEM) if one liked these better?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I agree it's subtle. I never knew there was a difference until after I bought my G. Now, it's very noticeable to me. Basically, the Journey sides are just flat whereas the sport side skirts flare out a little bit at the bottom.
Here's kalvinmaui's awesome journey w/o side skirts:
Here's jayjay3452's sport - note the side skirts flare out a little at the bottom?

ah okay, I can see it now. Thanks for posting the pics guys. Is it possible to swap out the Journey side sills for the Sport? Price? I know there are after market ones but I don't want to drastically change the OEM look nor add a ton of heavy looking plastic to my ride. Althought I like that front kit on kalvinmaui's G.

Surprisingly, the non-sport side skirts are more expensive than the sports:

someone do this already 400+ for simple bolt on clip on or 3m tape stuff is reasonable, my mazda3 you had to drill like 10 or more holes to clip on side skirts. I had to get people to do it. If its no drilling involved. For the X theres nothing special other than the seats,front bumper,and the side sills and wheels right?

I was thinking about pairing the sport side skirts w/ the Nismo front lip:
But I think the sport side skirts may be too subtle to match the Nismo front lip. I think the Tommy Kaira side skirts would probably be a good match, but I don't know if I want to spend close to $2K ($1300 + shipping from japan + painting):
