GTE Sideskirts

[jamesdarlington]

Hi all I want to add a GTE side skirt (or commonly known as a stone protector) to my Nova, any ideas how hard it is and how to do it? Any suggestions lads thanks :)

I have never put any on a car but i have removed mine to clean behind!
They look very straight forward to do, just make sure you get all the clips and all bits that your supposed to get when you buy them.

The clips can be purchased straight from vauxhall for next to nothing :o ?!?!
Once yove got them its just a matter of screwing on the clips, lining the skirt up and clipping it on ! A also used a bit of adhesive on the back part of the skirts because i couldn't i couldnt get them to sit perfectly flat ?!?!?
hope thats of some help mate 8)

pot rivit the clips in place rather than screw - stronger and dont rust as quick.

also you should really pot rivit the under side of the skirt to stop it flapping about

if you ask yer local vauxhall dealer nicely he may give you some foam tape to hold the skirt on place next to the arch.

I've got some pics of how I fitted mine if you want them?
