Default wings west side skirt install......

Hey, i got my WW RS type 2 kit for my 94 integra in the mail today. Now, i remember people saying that you do not need to take off the stock sides to install the side skirts. The instruction pictures look like you need to take them off though.. i dunno im confused. can anybody help me out who has done this .. thanks!

some people say you dont have to take them off, but on the wingswest site, it says to take them off. it should be easy, couple of clips and screws and a tug and they are off. besides, better with the off since they are of no use and add to the weight.

I heard that you keep them on as well....i have the WW skirts in my room right now. looking at the back of them, it looks like they were designed to fit over the stock ones...but im not sure.

for the 2 door side skirts, you can either leave em on or take em off. it's pretty much your choice. but for the 4 door. you HAVE to take the stock side skirts off. otherwise they wont fit.

I just emailed Armen from new way autosports, and he said to leave the stock sides on. It gives it more support. So im going to leave them on... the only thing that is different is the positioning of the rear "L" bracket. In the wings west install photos it has a picture with the sides taken off, so u have to just position the brackets a little differently... ehh its hard to explain...thanks guys

Can you post pics of a step by step of your install? I just got a WW RS kit for my eg and I was planning on keeping the stock skirts on as well but I'm not quite sure what to do with the L brackets. Thanks in advance.
