Because the Cabby RS side skirts look better, they cover all the sill (which is deeper on a Cabby), from the side it used to look stupid because the sills were sticking out lower than the skirts!
The reason I went with the Cossie front/rear bumpers and RS cabby skirts (apart from the fact that I prefer them) is that they all line up properly from a side view and make the car look nice and low all round, I kept the RST arch extensions and had them blended in to the Cabby skirts.

If i didnt have the Cossie bumpers then i'd have the full RST kit with front and rear skirts but with RS cabby sides....

They line up with the front and rear skirts, where as RST ones do not.
