well as yous know i bought bandits skirts off him and as yous know their is no fitting kit sold..
so you have to stick the skirts on with 3m tape but at the rear arch their is two holes but you can only use one due to the other being too far away from the arch lip..well i fitted daves skirts for him and one of the skirts came with part of the mounting kit..i forgot i had this till i was sweeping up the garage..
i thought to myself i could make that....
so heres how....
the hole at the back arch

the mounting off daves skirt
[Image: img3841.jpg]
the metal i used to make the mount
[Image: img3842h.jpg]
the metal cut
[Image: img3843d.jpg]
my mountings fitted with speed clips beside the trd mounting
[Image: img3845w.jpg]
mountings all painted
[Image: img3846e.jpg]
all fitted
[Image: img3850e.jpg]
look how tight the skirt is to the arch
[Image: img3851v.jpg]
(make sure its fitted... mount.....then arch then skirt)
when you tighten the bolt the shape inside of the arch lip really pulls the skirt in
job done it and you dont have that funny hole...:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Just found this post while looking for the fitting guide as I've got myself some skirts now.

Just to check, that little clip you've made is wedged down the back of the arch lip, and then sandwiches the arch lip between the clip and the skirt yes?
