Okay, before anyone says I need to use the search function, I tried. I haven't found exactly what I needed, and none of the pictures on any of the forums seemed to work.
So I bought some used side skirts. I believe they're Origin side skirts. The thing is, I'm unsure what to take off to install it. I know I need to take the inner trim off where I opened my door (does all of it just pop out? Because I feel resistance when I pull on it and I don't wanna break anything), it's just the pieces I circled. Do I only remove the part I circled in green, the red, or both? Or exactly what needs to be taken off? And what do people use to mount it? Regular screws?
Sorry. I know absolutely nothing about side skirts. Not really a fan of them, but I got a good deal. Plus I don't want to break anything.
Remove green front and back. Bolt in those holes and under door trim. Purchase taller door molding from 97+ car. Install on door. New molding sits next to green, on door filling now larger space between door and new skirt. New molding not mandatory but looks much better.
Here's a test fit. The trim piece in the front didn't exactly pop out. I kinda had to rip it out.
But the thing is, I dunno if the skirt is on backwards or not. The other skirt cracked when I tried putting it on this side, and this one slipped on a little better.
It's kind of dark but that looks good to me. Remember, aftermarket aero usually does not fit like OEM. Even if you have it right, it may not line up or bolt properly without body work.
