How to raise FD with CWest side skirt
The issue is jacking the car with the authentic C-West side skirts. If I use my jacklift, it will just break the side skirt. Anyone have any solutions?

Reach under the sideskirt and hold a block of wood up to the pinch weld behind the front wheel. Then roll the jack under and start to jack on the wood. Having the wood there should prevent the arm of the jack from coming into contact with the sideskirt before the car.
I start jacking my car like this everytime I don't drive up onto wood blocks. After you have it propped up a bit roll another jack under the front and jack the frame. From there I go under the drivers side door to the diff to get the rear up.
