Dont use the original holders for the side skirts. These have to be mounted with screws into the bodie of your car. I installed mine with alot of special glew for cars instead of the holders..I was not kinda happy to put some holes in the side of my car to install the side skirts...
just my 2 Cents...

Hi this really looks good. Where did u order the lights from?

And to all others, im in the same process with the GT3 side skirts. Just got them from the paint shop but when fitting they gap a little in the middle. I dont want to put screws into the body but im afraid they will loosen/fall off at higher speed without the screws. Is there any permanent solution too fix them well ???

And the result. I am kind of mad at my self though As you see on the last pic my right side skirt got 2-3 mm lower than it was supposed to, I dont Think you see it when the Wheel is back on, but damn I am pissed at my self. Once I got it there the 3Mtape just got stuck and I couldnt do a thing.


I am gonna have to remove that sideskirt later and undo it
