you'll probably have to remove the mudflaps. first thing you should do is a test fit. put the side skirt up against the car and see what fits. when it looks right, use some double sided tape, mount the side skirt to the car, drill some holes through the feed side skirt and into the car, then use self-locking screws to secure the side skirt to the car. you're done...shouldn't take you very long...the feed side skirts are perhaps the easiest side skirts to install. goodluck

Thanks man, when I put them up to the car they seem like they don't fit right. I think I will have to take the flaps off. They seem nice though, and I think I will be happy with them. I was thinking that they would look nice painted the same color as the car. Anyone try that?

Would you mind telling me where you got them from? are they the carbon fiber Rotary Extreme ones. Could you post pics of the skirts before they are installed on the car, and after? Thank you

You can't fit the sideskirts with the mud guards. Once you take them off, you will find the sideskirts very easy to install.

I can't take pictures of them off the car. They are at my body shop right now getting put on. I will post pictures of them on the car when they are finished. I got them from RX7.NET, and they are the Rotary Extreme ones I beleive, but they seem very nice. I just hope they look the way I want them to.

The car looks very nice. Could someone answer whether these can be installed in a manner that is completely reversible (ie no drilling of the body) using the bolts near the frame rails?
