Mickaisy Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) Hey folks, I have a 1953 Oldsmobile super 88 four door and been contemplating getting some fender skirts. I found some decent priced ones on eBay but it is hard for me to tell if they fit. Was hoping someone can help determine if they will work or not. It seems like the skirts are about 3 inches too long than the opening I measured. Any info on if they fit or not is much appreciated! Thank you!

The 55er Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 They should fit your car. They mount outside over top of the wheelwell and should be slightly longer than the opening itself. All the 88 series skirts are the same from 1951-1953. They're fairly common items and there are many sets out there for sale. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will sand, primer, and paint so as long as no major dings, they should be fine. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 These turn up frequently for sale on Ebay & at swap meets too, just buy the straightest, smoothest ones you can find at the best price. They're not at all rare or hard to find items. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 55er Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 A quick check of their website shows Fender Skirt Depot has no fender skirts available for this application. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
