Hi, to those who have the stock JDM side skirts.
I got my sides here and want to know how you guys install it.
I dont want to drill any holes on the body of the car. I know I can use the holes where the front mud graud is and I can drill one hole at the back. what did you guys use to hold the middle. Double sided tapes?

Thank you

I would say drill, unless you want someone ripping off the double stick taped 500+ mod...a body shop can always patch the holes up real easy and probably for little cost if youevery decide to take them off.

MugenEP drilled for the bottom clips but used double sided tape for the upper flare.

Does showstoppers have the oem skirts? If so whats their phone #? Personally I wouldn't drill because it always add's to future problems of the self tapping screw loosening due to vibration. 3M tape will hold like steel if the mounting surface is clean and applied in warm weather. I'll stick with screwed in the front and taped in the rear. Audis use the tape for all their rear deck lips. No screws at all.

there are no self taping screws, just plastic clips.
