its pretty simple, i dont see how its confusing but ill help you

put them on in place and put 3-4 screws in each wheel well.

thats pretty much it. if they dont fit good then thats a different story but installing them is cake

i just got these things too altho mine are from extreme dimensions they seem to be pretty decent quality for fiberglass but any way is it just the 2 bolts on the front fender well and two bolts on the rear fenderwell that hold the side skirts on?

well i thought you knew that the stock ones had to come off. thats like trying to put another motor in with one already in. basically just take off the stock sides and re-attach the bomex ones the same way.

btw, i didnt wanna start a new post, but im ptutin my BC2 kit on this weekend, and i was wondering, my car is already lowered, how am i going to lower it down off a jack with sideskirts on and a front and rear body kit? should i lower it down on blocks of wood, and drive off them?

your gonna need 2x4s to drive your car up on because once your lowered w/ a kit, the factory jack just doesnt cut it. i know i couldnt use my jack w/ my drift sides w/o driving up on wood. now my trd sides just barely clear so i dont need the wood

FYI, I use velcro in the door jams for the skirts and two bolts in the fender wells on the front and back, makes it easy to take off and on.

There are screws in teh fender wells and if i am not mistaken there are screws along the bottom of the car too holding the skirts on.

Cut them in half and use FG to make them longer would be my guess, I never even bothered to mess with FG kits. I saved myself the trouble and got a polly kit that would fit good.

What ones are you looking for? RK Sport makes some and I think WW makes some for your car.
