Borrowed a picture of his. Red circle shows where the fenders stick out a tad more than the sideskirts. Maybe half an inch or so.

Thank you very much, I believe I wasted my $$$ buying 1M side skirts based on looking at this picture.

If you could get some more pictures that would be great but that gap looks like basically nothing and not worth the frustration of grafting skirts together.

Did he reuse the majority of the 135i front end parts? I find it hard to believe some of these lists of having to rebuy a ton of front end parts.
