Question about installing Feed sideskirts

I got a set of Feed replica FG sideskirts from RE. I also have his street diffuser, which had small marks where to drill holes, that lined up to factory holes in the bumper/heatshields so that installation was very easy, and very little drilling was required. With these skirts, they have the same marks, but I see no corresponding mounting points on the body for them to line up with. Before I go drilling into my FD, I just wanted to see how everyone else went about mounting these. Thanks alot..

^I did the same thing in front, and removed the black plastic shield in front of the rear tires, and used those for the rear mounting holes. I put three (3) screws in between the front and the back to keep things tight. People sometimes bump them with their feet when they get in and I wanted to make sure they were on tight.

Thanks guys. Is it possible to keep the rubber/plastic pieces in front of the rear wheels with these sideskirts?

You need to remove that black piece or they will not fit, their are two indentions that need to go in the screw holes that are under that black piece.

it's actually really simple.

I have the feed's off my car as I am about to send it in for a repaint. I test fitted them and they fit fine. I can grab a pic if you need it.
