i'm gonna fit my Side Skirts this weekend (weather sunday looks promising)

I have the fitting kit but do holes need cutting underneath to line up with the fixing points on the skirts?

cos I really don't wanna start cutting and have rain and dirt collecting in the sills or anywhere else

has anyone got pics of the underside of their car with their skirts either dealer fitted or where you have bonded instead that I can look at before doing mine?

any help appreciated
Cheers

Well Ormi fitted mine about 4 hours ago, along with the TRD rear lip, and the underside isn't attached to anything... It's bolted on at the arches, and we used VHB tape (kindly supplied by Bandit) along the top of the skirts to ensure a nice tight fit to the car's sills.

:thumbup: Looks great :biggrin: Pics will follow in the morning once I take them...

Rear lip was drilled and bolted to the bumper, no VHB tape on that one Smile
