Talking continue

Thank you for the edit Neo

Here's 4 more because the page won't let me have too many links.

Here in this picture is where you push down on the skirt, breaking those plastic tabs.

To install new skirt, simply put everything in reverse.


I bought the plastic clips from Lowe's, 2 for 80 cents. You need 10 on each side.
I had no beer so it took even longer

I will post new pictures because battery died on that last one, just in time. And as you can see the car is pretty dirty. Plus, it's still not lowered yet

Wow, this post got pushed pretty far down.

No pictures since the last install when battery died and really didn't want to show it off yet b/c I still haven't lowered my car yet

Here it is again for new members asking and not familiar with the "search" button
