Howdy all, a few months ago somebody broke some clips in the middle of my side skirt by hitting it with a jack (whilst pulling it out from under the car). I just realized that the wiggle room it has to flop around has caused some paint to come off.

Is there any info or how-to on how to get the side skirt off? Anybody know how to do it? I see some screws on either end.. I just like to know what I'm going to be doing before I set out to do it.

I guess once I get it off, I'll have to... Gorilla Glue the clips back together or some fukken ****

 

1 screw on each end and pull. It should pop right off.

 

"pop right off", as in, you pull it towards you?

Because looking into the spot where it's loose, there are THREE broken clips... you'd think a jack hitting it from behind would POP out the clips, not ******* break them...

I'm worried that if I pull on it, it'll just break more clips..

 

i had push lock tabs instead of screws on my side skirts, and drive driving hard through the canyons my tire managed to rip one off. The side skirt appears to just be clipped in along the edge.

Pull the screws out and just see what happens.

 

Hah, I already got the screws out, and it's held in pretty good! There's a little wiggle room around the edges now, but there appears to be about 5 clips, I have 3 broken ones in the middle now, and it's still held in firm by the ones on the end, a few inches away from where the screws go in.

I don't want to break any more clips

Okay, I just found a how-to here: http://www.griptuning.com/ImgApp/install/0000000130.pdf

And it reads:

1. Place vehicle on jack stands and remove wheels.
2. Remove bolts at each end of rocker.
3. Carefully, pry rocker away from the sheet metal. By doing this, clips will break off
from the rocker. See Figure I.

****. Well what the **** do I do to fix my sideskirt if the clips are SUPPOSED to break off???

How do people buy used side skirts if the clips break off? I doubt you could repair such a thin strip of plastic.
