You have to drill small holes for the front and rear skirts. THe side skirts are purely snap and screw.

The front is easy, and the dimples for where to drill are already there.

The rear needs the templates.

No need to drill the fronts. There are more than enough bolts to hold it in place.

The rears, be supercareful about the markings before you drill. Make sure the template is flat when you mark where the holes should be. I have seen some where the rear lips don't sit flush against the bumper.

yea, many people don't drill the 2 holes for the front lip because there is already so many bolts. however, you could drill it and put different bolts for security reasons.
the sides you just slide the old ones off and pop in the new one.
