1) any pics of how the sides are mounted on the door step area? you know where you open the door, clips?
2) the back bumper, how does it stick to the original body? I seen the bottom bracket you made but is there some sory of double sided tape?

the kit looks great

I'll take some pix for you of how it is mounted. But i'll explain a little right now.
Directions were in Japanese, But i figured it out.
Side Skirts mount normal front and rear( in wheel well) with the original rear push pin clips, and in the front the screws. In the door area i had to drill 4 holes into the frame to put the provided screws in to hold it in place. The skirts had all the holes pre drilled so i just followed that set up. Was not hard at all, except for the hole and screw nearest the door hinges. Didn't give you enough room really but i managed.

The front and the rear lips have predrilled holes that you mount around the fender going into the wheel well area and you have to drill some holes into the front and rear bumper edges. In the front where the kits lip goes over the lip under the grill i used 4 stripes of the provided Dsided tape. about 3 inches in length. on the rear it grabbed so tight i wasn't even able to put tape, so i made the bracket to hold it in place and keep it sturdy. Front bracket was just extra support.

And Thanks!!
