I know some people on here bonded the skirts on using a strong adhesive. The proper way to do it is with clips and rivets but bonding should work if you hold it on tight enough.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

the only sure fire way to ensure longevity is to do it properly, with rivets and the proper clips (which are still available from the parts desk as they're used on later cars too).

Agreed. At the end of the day - if it's done well, then it shouldn't become an issue.humbucker wrote:the only sure fire way to ensure longevity is to do it properly, with rivets and the proper clips (which are still available from the parts desk as they're used on later cars too).
