hi all,

 

Quick question, I bought some second hand fiberglass evo 3 side skirts for my GSR on the weekend and i just wondering what you guys think is the best way to install them? A quick google search recommended everything from self tapping screws and pop rivets to double sided tape and skaflex. Im not to keen on drilling into my car and i want to be able to remove them. Whats the best way to install them or should i save up and buy some genuine items? 

 

thanks

Sikaflex is best....self tapping screws are worst. 

Once you sikaflex them on but, they arent easily removed.

You could just use a couple of  speed clips at each end with a 10mm bolt but you still need to attatch it to the sills in some way.

I dont know if that will work...probably be an extremely tight fit...being fibreglass they dont have much stretch in them either.
