Well, not a good day. I misjudged a turn and ran over a ghetto curve. Put scrapes and a 3 inch gash in my passenger side skirt, towards the wheel.

Messed my sideskirt. Got Question
Well, not a good day. I misjudged a turn and ran over a ghetto curve. Put scrapes and a 3 inch gash in my passenger side skirt, towards the wheel. You can't see it unless you are underneath the car. I was going to leave it alone, however, concern about the gash and anything might come of it. Besides looking like sxxt everytime I put the car on the lift, is there reason why I should change this out? Below are some close ups.

A co worker brought up the fact if the gash is deep enough, water can get in and...might cause damage...rust to rocker panel if, etc. That was my main concern

Ok guys, I don't think its the sideskirt that has the gash. From my picture, it looks like its a piece right next to the sideskirt. If this is true, anyone know what that piece might call? I can't really tell if its some kind of a plastic guard or something...

hey gray, as far as what the plastic is I'd have look at what it's for I'm going to look around here and see if i can find a shot from someone else's to determine what it is and what it's for, my feeling is your ok.

Thanks man, I know it's nothing, however if the piece is cheap, then might as well get it. I assume its some kind of plastic "guard" like a fender guard or something...
