i need some info.....

has anyone removed the standard skirts without damaging any clips etc? it looks simple enough with the end caps and underneath having the self tapping screws but i see that there are clips that pin it to the bodywork - do these simply pop out when you pull the skirt straight off? cheers in advance all :thumbs:

Someone has put those double sided sticky foam pads on my skirts for extra support at the top, dont know if thats a factory thing or not.. but it'd look pretty tonk if the skirts come off and theres the remains of that left on. probably just my car tho

They just pop out but take some force. There is double sided sticky stuff all along them too IIRC - well the end piece at the front definitely does, along with 2 hidden clips. I would only take them off if you have to. What are you taking them off for BTW? :)
