ADHESIVE KIT SIDE BLADES

[black_sheep]

Thanks for this...

So the end caps are just bonded on with double sided tape? And perhaps some clips in the centre section?

Sorry to be a pain; what does the inside of the cap look like?

Sorry not been on for a while - yes the main blades are bonded/screwed to the car. It was the end caps that I was referring to. They are held on with plastic clips and double-sided automotive tape.

OK guys, so here it is...

I have a question. How did the ordering process go? Did you call up your local dealership and say "hey, I see these side skirts.... take my money"?

ALSO, how are you going to paint-match them? I am really considering the other OEM type, but I really want to avoid manual labour (lack of time on my own part, and motivation)

Where these easy to fit

I had them fitted to my car last week. Whilst I didnt fit them myself, the guy that did fit them said the process of fitting them was simple, in the sense that you just use a bonding adhesive kit and stick themt o the car. The difficulty is getting them in the right place since there are no markings on the car, or on the blades.

The guy I used is very good at what he does, and even he managed to get one blade out of place by about 2 or 3 mm. You don't notice it unless you actually go and compare each side quite closely.

Nice. In case it hasn't been mentioned to you already, the parts only come primed and will require painting. My car is Desire Red which is a three coat system. It was about £100 for the paint and adhesive kits to finish the job.

Luckily my car is emotion red. I sprayed the spoiler myself, came out great, perfect match and cost about £20 Inc lacquer so again I'll do these myself
