i like thoes skirts, how mcuh did you pay and from where?

EDIT:i guess i could help out on the install lol 2 or 3 screws in each wheel well, then 4 or 5 plugs under neath the car that you take out. The skirt will slide out sideways towarsd the rear of the car. Dont pull it out away from the car of you will brake the brackets it uses to slide in on

no, the sideskirts slide towards the front of the vehicle, you just push on little flat piece on the rear of the skirt and the piece should just pop right off.

I used to have those on my car. Like EJ6 said, slide the old onesforward to remove them.

There should have been a plastic "L" shaped bracket that came with it to support the sides beneath the doors. Make sure your placement of those makes for a nice tight fit so your skirts don't sag. You'll need some self tapping sheet metal screwsto attach them. Bolt up in the front and you'll have to cutsections beneath forfront and rear jack accessibility. The rear needs to be bolted underneath as thereare no rear screw holes or places to attch to. You'll also need some more screws to attach along the underside the entire length of the car. I used 3 for each side.In myopinion and experience, the Type Zeroskirtsdon't come with a good installation kit. You have torig afew things.Good luck... [sm=smiley20.gif]
