I had been searching several months for a Neon that I liked for a good price, and finally found it on Friday the 13th of June 2008

My girls together when I brought the Neon home.

A side shot the day I brought my new car home


I decided yesterday I would put my sideskirts on since they came in this week. Last silver set around that I know of.
Here's what I think of the car now

I thought I'd take some pics of how I went about cutting the mud shields. I did it this way because I wanted to retain them, so I just trimmed them to fit under the skirt. This was the most time consuming part. Trying to cut these with a dull hacksaw until I went and got my Dremel, and finished the job the right way.

Another

I went ahead measured the spacing for the plastic hooks, marked the locations with a sharpie, and attached them to the car with duct tape so they wouldn't move while I screwed them on.

skirt on. Looks good! (There's a wheel chock behind the other rear wheel btw)

And another! (Don't mind it hanging. Back's not screwed on at this point because I had to take the rear wheel off.)

Here's what I think of my car now!!

For anyone wondering If they can do this themselves or not, go for it! It's simple, but can be time consuming. All in all, it took me about 5 hrs to do this, keep in mind that's because I was taking my time to make sure I did it to my liking, I started cutting with a dull hacksaw, and thoroughly cleaned all my wheels back and front as I had them off the car.
I should get a finished pic of how my skirt goes over the front fender liner. Being that there was a tab on the fender bent and drilled ,(like the one that has a clip to screw the liner on, but without the clip) I decided that instead of just screwing the skirt to the liner like they said to, I drilled through the liner since the hole on the skirt lined up with the tab on the fender, and then secured the second hole with a christmas tree fastner instead. It's not going anywhere. It's also a good idea to buy a pack of them to replace the ones you will destroy by removing them. They're cheap, just replace them.
I'm waiting til I get my Thermal R&D and I need to have my dad order me the coupler pipe so It will fit my exhaust to put my front and rear lips on.
That's all for now, Thanks for looking!
