Clips rivet or screw on. On the long bits iirc theres no where for tape to be stuck...

Dont then, get the clips from vauxhall (Brand new for the full 12 (iirc) is around 5) and glue the clips onto the car

or you could put the side skirt on how itt ment to be and get some crazy foam and put it on in the skirt so its solid and then put some tiger seal on the edges of the skirt and in the door were it meets the paint but if you are going to do it thst way you have to key it with sand paper and after put some fiber glass on were you put the tiger seal as if you paint it it will tust crack the paint were the tiger seal is

i stuck the rear bits on with the factory double sided tape . then put 2 bolts through the back arch. then used big pop rivets on the under side all the way along just the bottom and they sat pretty well and tight to the sill.

clips = pennies

I have the clips but am i fcuk going to use them. I can imagine it being a royal PITA with freshly painted car and skirts...accident waiting to happen IMO lol

I shall drill holes in the underside before paint, so i can blast some waxoil in before paint, then Tigerseal/supersticky shizzlethem to the sills. TBH i dont see them needing to come off ever again so who cares!

thanks guys, i will buy some and have a look my sills have now been plated and are really solid so i have undersealed them, stone chipped and then painted the white!

i just wanted the skirts to cover the sill up a bit, not that they look **** but it would look better with skirts to cover it i think!
