OEM is not really original... isn't that the point of 'customizing'?

its OEM but not factory option. unless its an rt, you have to go into dodge and special order the kit. 03+ rts are super rare, i know of one that ive seen around, and ive only seen maybe one other one ever. so the skirts and lip are pretty unique, and IMO a good clean look is much much better looking than ANY body kit.

Any side skirts you get are going to throw the car off a bit since they will hang lower than the front and the rear. You'd be better of just getting some type of lip kit if you're going to do side skirts. You could just fix the dent and save money, too. :thumbup:

I don't think my R/T side skirts throw my Neon off one bit. (check my website for pics) . I think they look awesome! They look like they belong there or so I have been told many times. :D

Yeah, it looks good, but when you step back, you can see that there's no longer a level line from front to back. The side skirts made the mid section of the car look lower than the front. It sounded like he was looking for something that will keep the sides level with the front and back, which no side skirts will do. That's all I was saying. ;)
