well it will depend now on how fast i get my tails and bumper.... thinking about gluing the sideskirts on and molding them in, but i will have to see about getting the clips first to mount them like oem.

I'm not sure if they have the back edge "rolled" at the top where you could hang them on something like the ones you buy in the kit, or not. If so, just bend some metal with a step in it, attach it to the car, then hang the skirts on them and tape the length of them and srew them at the ends. I don't think you should mold them. It would looker cleaner with an OEM fitment in my opinion

these have no lip to do that to attach it, so i am going to look or some clips today at a local parts store, and maybe start installing these things, but we will see if i can get them looking good or not, they need paint pritty bad though, so i may just wait on the install till i get my bumper anyway. or i will install and get the whole car painted this winter

yeah i did, just the bumper and trunk lid, it did not turn out great. the bumper did but not the trunk, going with a brillant black matallic paint, something non custom because i drive the car alot, if i chip it it will be easy to touch up and fix.... but the car is getting a complete paint job this winter, intime for performance and style car show at carlisle... it is a go, and a few other "mild" rear bumper mods also!!! time will tell how everything turns out...
