Right you need a few G clamps, riviter and rivits and some foam!

Put a bit of grease along the top edges of the side skirts and offer them up to the car, making sure they fit perfectly! if the grease isnt on the car in any place then the skirts need triming. If you have trimmed then repeat the process above untill everywhere fits perfectly.

Wipe away all traces of grease.

Coat top edge of the skirts and arches in the silkaflex and hold them to the car.

Put a bit of foam on the clamps of the g clamp and put one end of it inside the car (for the skirts) and the other on the arch and tighten untill the skirt is held in place, but not to tight. Do the same for the arches but put the clamp under the arch - will need to remove the front arch liners.

then from under neath drill a few holes into the arches and skirts and rivit them to the car.

There you have it - fitted side skirts and arches!!

Oh, you get silkaflex from any motor factors!!
