Yeah, genuine Tom's should have a sticker type thing embedded into the fibreglass. Not 100% sure on the sideskirts but defo front and rear bumpers so I don't see why the skirts would be any different.

For absolute clarification PM Cardhore. He's very helpful and the font of Tom's based knowledge!

Genuine! Where where! Ill have it!!... Stop teasing.

Side skirts and any accompanying winglets will have either a thick fibreglass plinth with a sticker on it or just a thin sticker with a layer of adhesion over the top. They will always have hand writen numbers underneath the logo itself. Dependant on the font style will determine if its pre mid nineties shizzle.

Genuine Japanese body parts tend to be made from white GRP, copies are usually grey in colour.
