pic of my old 5 door, bumpers are the same, skirts are slightly different but can be made too fit easily.

All kits will fit a 5 door given that you are prepared to put the right ammount of time and effort into getting them fitted properly

hey Kris TD, why'd you only paint the back door handels? looks stupid! should have removed 'em completely then had 'em smoothed over.
all kits will fit the 5 door, just try to get simple skirts like the M3 ones, chop 'em in half and stick 'em back together but a lil bit longer with some fiberglass ya can get down halfords, if ya aint confident doing htat, just take 'em to ya bodyfitter and they should stretch 'em out a bit for ya!

1. i used gsi skirts made specially for a 5 door.
2. its only that handle which isnt painted, it was because i didnt have a rear handle backing plate and you cant use the front backing plates on rear handles.
3. 5 doors are not longer, the only thing most skirts need doing is the lip which sits on the sil extending, obviously ones which rise above this would need cutting for the door.
