Default Problems with sideskirt.

Ok so I've searched and in every topic it says to slide the skirt forward to remove it. I've removed all the screws underneath the skirt and its impossible to slide the skirt either way. What am I doing wrong?

So you got the two screw in the wheel well and the five or so under the sideskirts?

If you did all that you need to do is hit the skirt from the rear and it'll slide forward and pop off.

yeah, it might be a little tough at first, but it should pop off if you got all the clips and screws out.

I would recommend "Autobody Garage" on Bryant street, San Francisco. The owner steve is the coolest guy you can talk to. He also helped me take off my rockers when and helped me install it back on after they had it painted. Definitely A++ in my book.

ohh yea, it costed me 100 to get my side rockers painted and nothing else because I got an EX and my moldings and door handles are already matched to the factory body paint.
