Did you fit them mate or the body shop ?

Did hear and it could be wrong there is a lot of extra work involved and self tapping screw into the sill which freaks me out.

They do look excellent.

Hi
I bonded them on with a specific body adhesive and only used the existing screw that holds the wheel arch linner in so the ends are held , I also used a line of 3M tape along the top edge to hold them in place until it had set , pretty easy really .

So you didnt need to refinish the shape of the skirt to the sil at all ?

If not give us a link to your seller :)

They came in Grey and I just got the painter to smooth them up a bit , one side was a bit bowed out when I first offered them up but I just pulled that part straight and wrapped masking tape around to hold it and left it in the sun for the day to straighten .
Look at this on eBay

You can get them new from Seat but they're very expensive.
There is a Turkish company who make them in plastic (ABS) so they could be an option. They also provide them painted if wanted.
