Actually, The side skirts didn't put up much of a fight.
The rear bumper though. I'm sanding down the edges near the trim to try and get it closer to the body. Drivers side doesn't want to wrap around the wheel well without some force.
Here's one skirt on.
Zip ties on the edges and a screw in the center of the sill.

because the end would not wrap around the corner and if I forced it, it would have crack it there anyways.

I removed the molding all together.
Hey, look what i put back together!
Ran out of primmer. Just did my front bumper 5 minutes ago.
Glassed and glazed rear. I could have just used relief cuts but i wanted it to sit up higher so i went ahead and spent an hour doing this. I tried to flex the thing and screw it down to make the wheel wheel curvature more agressive like i did with the skirts but w/e. I really just wanted to get it done
Yes, this is the HARD way. So ******* time consuming but it turned out so nice.
The bumper sits like this on both sides without being hooked to anything with zip ties. Heat works wonders on resin. It's since been trimmed where it's uneven and has primmer drying on it right now.
Digi, where did you buy your aero from (be specific)?

*cough*
Nevermind that **** in the gas cap area.... It was water that had decided it wanted to get primmered as well. Sanded right off no big deal and that's just there atm to cover up any exposed metal from flash rusting. I'm also aware i need spacers for the rear. Prolly a 5mm slip for the fronts.
That whole side was kinda smashed in anyway so i just said **** it, pulled everything out and glassed that section in. I'm leaving the recesses in the fenders right now since i'll probably replace them but the 1/4's are getting molded in on both sides with the oe molding removed. Not a fan of it. Might not look right with it not shaved on the aero but w/e...

If you didn't pull the fender you wouldn't have neeeded a spacer...nice work none the less though. I wish I had time or energy or cared enough to shave molding on my fc but I usually don't even look at unless I wanna drive. Carry on our wayward son!

Fenders were pulled for 255's i had sitting on there as temps.....
Plus, i like pull.
The fronts look like a sack of dicks regardless.
See exibit, a (aka, mad burlap sack full of freakishly huge leper members)
I could not get this to roll even no matter what. It pissed me off so i left it.

We'll see how **** goes. It does bother me and i do want overs but i also want some stop and go parts put on first. For now, it'll have to do. Shine does make foresight reps! Found that out a couple days ago so that's cool. I'll definitely hit them up when i'm ready. Right now, it's not in my budget.
