Sportback Difference between RS3 and S3/S-line side skirts?

[1664Hatter]

Evening chaps,

Maybe an easy question to answer, is the side skirts on a RS3 different/larger to those on the S3 and S-line cars?

I know they are flared at the front to line up with the front wheel arch but what about the rest of it?

Thanks.

I don't think there is a massive difference but the RS skirts blend to both the front and rear wheel arches rather than sit in between.

Actually, thinking about it, I think they use the same presses for both for the door panels, so no difference at all then!

There is a difference.

S3 is the same as S Line.

RS3 are fatter, look at side on photos and the RST of the skirts are much more flared. They look blown up.
