Default Tickford Series 1 side skirts on to wagon

Has anyone attempted to lengthen a set of Tickford XR skirts to fit onto a wagon?

I scored a series 1 XR6 on the week end for FREE. I isn't the best looking car but for that price I don't care. The xr bar and lights are now waiting to go on my wagon (So are the 17" Tickford wheels ). I like the look of the Tickford skirts, but not sure if it would be possible to lengthen them to fit.

I was thinking a DIY job using fibreglass, any suggestions?

I used fiberglass as well

Thanks Ray,
I looked at the pics, they look factory. Any tips on the process you used.

Not really mate, I just took my time making sure they were even and both the same length
