they really dont bolt on all thay well you have to put self tappers in and also chop a few inches off the front of the side skirt.

First off fit it to the rear then find out how much you need to take off the front. cut reinstall and get a set of ek mudflaps and then walla your done

So everything snaps into place? So if i understand correctly the process would be:

1. install by algining rear. All mounting points will match. Mark a line in the front where the side will extend past fender.

2. remove side skirt and cut along marked line.

3. Re-install, again all mounting points with line up.

So no self tapping screws or double sided tape necessary?

wtf your in Miramar! I had these on a EH2 i had...so if i have time i could actually show you since im in Miramar too but the car was sold to my buddy. Which mean all our schedules would have to open up lol NVM. It should line up without any tapping screws but dont quote me on that one since i really cant remember the screws.
