How to: Mount Aftermarket Cianci Side Skirts

[3000GTCSULB]

Any after market product will need work to make it look OEM. With that in mind, I had my body shop attach my side skirts. The goal was to make the side skirts removable if needed.

1) Make a bracket that looks like this with 2 bolts.

2) Epoxy the bracket onto the back of the side skirt.

3) Measure and drill the sides of the car to mount up. 2 bolts in the front, and 2 bolts in the back will make it line up perfect. Use some 3M double sided tape in places that feel loose.

Hope that helps.

What kind of epoxy did you use? Did you bolt the underside at all?

I did not have to bolt the underside, I also decided not to use 3m tape, I used 3 screws instead on the inside jam. I'll take a picture tomorrow when I get my car back.

Cool, thanks. And I assume you can get to those bolts from inside the car. To put the nuts on the other side.

On the front you can access both bolts by removing the mud flaps. On the rear you can access 1 from the outside, and the other is from the inside (you have to remove the speaker rear panel).
