good luck with it!
Kinda off topic, but i'm just curious how the JDM side skirts attach to the car. Do they use the stock clips or is it drilled on? Maybe you can provide us with some quality pictures of the door opened so I can check it out? Thanks.

i certainly would not consider paying for a product and it having defects upon arrival normal. the cost to repair would not come out of my pocket if i bought it. ZU L8R also had a crack in his. ZU, what did you do? Sounds like there are some problems somehwere, either in shipping or packing.

the authentic nismo skirts use these plastic sleeves that go in the holes and a screws goes into them. instead of the stock rivets
Are these holes where the stock clips would go? What i'm trying to get at is do you have to drill into the car or do you use the holes where the clips go. Thanks.

Not yet, I think he's taking it back to the shop today for them to respray (paint doesn't match according to Matt) and they didn't fill the front emblem like he asked them to.

Probably be another day or two on side pics.
