I believe you need screws at the wheel wells and double stick tape along the skirt.

 

barebones,
gotta change your name, no longer "bare bones". Once the first mod is on. . . watch out! You must get treated for being or becoming a modaholic. We are all going thru it. . .

Hey Joe--

The side skirts came with all the pieces you need to install. From what I understand, the bottom and sides attach with screws they include, and the top part presses up flush with the body using double-sided tape.

The screws are a no-brainer, but take a close look at how flush it is with the body once they're done. I just looked at mine closely today, and noticed there's a nice gap between the body and the side skirt on the passenger side. I'm taking it back in next week so they can redo the tape.

 

so it's just self tapping screws then....

 

by tyhe wya steve how did the turbo bumper come out? did u get it installed? we want pics..

 

Joe--

Came out pretty well. They insisted on cutting the Carrera air ducts, so I told them to go ahead. They also fabricated some brackets to connect the bottom of the bumper.

The end result? This car looks 100X better I think with turbo bumper and side skirts. It looks so much more aggressive and complete.

You can check out the pics in my sig. I couldn't get any good angles; the car looks awesome in real life.

Now...if I could just find money for a suspension mod...........

 

Hi Joe,
chumpulump is 100% right. The tape & screws come with the side skirts. I installed my GT3 skirts myself - It was a very easy job. The double stick tape is aready on the skirt, just peel & stick...Make sure it is lined up before pressing.
There are 8 or so screws that are put in from underneath the skirt with brackets. Make sure you line up the bracket to accept the screws. Then there are the screws along the back wheel'well & 1or 2 in the front wheel. To make life easy turn the wheels to allow for more room to work. Also I removed the rear wheels for easy access.

Good luck!

 

THANKS.. I GUESS MINE GOT lost in the shipping process there was a hoel on the box when i got it... oh yeah i didi find one screw in the box lol ... i guess i have to got to the local porsche dealer to get them...

thanks...
