If you don't want to use tape

I think that there is something called bulldog glue. My dad used it on his side skirts and it works really good. It should come in a squeeze tube from Home Depot or something.

Try not to make a mistake because you have to grind if off if you do.

Go to a auto paint supplier and ask for the strongest 3m double sided tape they have. Tell them what you are using it for and they will get you something that will work. The auto supply places can get glues that hold on the entire roofs on cars, they can access more adhesives like this than anyone I know.

What I use is a roll of "3M double-sided tape" the thickest one (there's 3 kinds) ** and "3M adhesive promoter 6938" (i think thats the #, I forgot it's been awhile.., they'll know what your talking about) it comes in a little white packet. What it is., is that it enhance the adhesive on the double-sided tape. You can buy it in any auto paint & supplies store. First make sure the surface your taping is very very clean (very important) then use 3M adhesive promoter first (put it wherever your taping onto) the sideskirts and the body, let it dry, then you put the double-sided tape on it and then install the side-skirts and you're done!!!:) I drive my ep everyday.., rain or shine my side-skirts is been on almost a year, and it's still ON and STRONG!!!:D Try it!!!

CTR come with clips for drilling too. But most people (like mugen_ep) pop them off and just attach the skirts with automotive tape so they dont have to drill into the side of the car.
