New Side Skirts Fitted

[Tara]

Finally got around to fitting my side skirts I got from eBay , worked out £185 with painting which im pleased with as Sest wanted £600 without paint lol , i know they are only fibre glass but they fit really well considering.

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

Looks really good, can you still access the pinch weld jacking points with these?

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.
