Where do you guys jack up your car when you have stacy side skirts.

I don't understand the question. An NSX with stacy side skirts is already jacked up.
^^^ not as bad as oem 91-01 sides

Don't listen to these idiots. If you jack your car up by your windshield it will crack. Duh, obviously! It's glass!
I have some pretty low hanging side skirts too and it's hard to jack up the car without hitting into them. The best way to do it is go to one of your wheels and start compressing the springs using a clamp. You'll notice as you compress the spring the wheel will start to lift and rise up into the wheel well; about 8" or so with a full compression. Next go to the other wheels and do the same thing. When you finish you should have all four wheels fully compressed into each wheel well and about 8" of clearance off the ground, which should be enough to get under. It works on the same principle of putting your hands under your feet and lifting yourself off the ground a few inches.

You guys are all a bunch of careless owners! Everybody knows the best way to jack the car is by putting a coat hanger around the oem rear wing and lifting, that way you can get to the bottom and top of the car at the same time.

I forgot to mention, if you don't have a jack, you can put the coat hanger around the rear wing and attach it to the garage door and then use the garage opener to lift the car by the wing.
P.S: OP please know we are all joking here. Except for the side view mirror jack points, that one is true

lmmmmmfffaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooo
funniest thread of all time.
funniest thread of all time.
I've been trying this at work right now but I can't control how high I get.. I think all the CrossFit I've been doing has been sending me into the ceiling..
As I do not yet own my NSX, all of my jacking points are on this forum.
I don't have my NSX yet either... I didn't know there was so much jacking involved in ownership. I better practice...

Before I got my mirror jacks, I just tipped the car up on its side. Was that wrong?
The tip over method is really good if you have a dolly too, that way you can move the car around while working on it.
