Ordered some Gsi rep sideskirts from www.tuning.co.uk, they came today and they seem like a real good fit, only thing is they came with no instructions at all, they came with some ''tigerseal'' type stuff and about 10 screws. Anyone know the best way to fit them? Where do i screw into? any pics that would give me an idea would be excellent! I really dont wanna mess things up!
Im gonna take loads of photos and a step by step when im doing it and post it up to help others out!
thanks in advance

These are the skirts in question

When you say the sill, would that be the lip type thing that runs along the jacking points if you know what i mean?

Yeah they seem too buddy, the front mudflapps have to come off though, the rear of the skirt seems like is slips over the standard arch! Need to find out as much as i can because this is the first set of skirts i've ever fitted to a corsa and i've have 9 of them all sport's or gsi's lol im normally a standard, low and tuned type of guy! lol

That looks well buddy, did you just put them over the standard back arches? if you know what i mean? didnt cut them or anything?

Did you use any tigerseal?
