Hey guys,

I'm looking to fit a GSi kit to my Sri and was wondering if Any one has done a guide?

The front bumper is a straight fit I believe.

The skirts are my main concern....
can they be fitted without the clips?
Is there anyway to attach using the clips so the skirts could be removed easily if needed?
Do I need GSi rear arches to fit the skirts or are they the same??

Thanks for any help

They can be fitted without clips, a lot of users on here seem to use tiger seal, a very strong adhesive, apply to skirts and use masking tape to hold to car while the adhesive goes off.

As for the arches, you need GSI arches as the normal arches are too big.

You will need to use the front and rear arches off the gsi as they are shorter. i belive most bond the sideskirts on with tiger seal

you can cut down your arches, just hacksaw them then sand the ends smooth

Probably less hassle sourcing some GSi arches and respraying them. I have some skirts I need fitting. Will probably never get round to fitting them!
