Question How are Tommy Kaira sides installed/mounted?

Who has the TK sides on their Zs? Can you post up a picture and post up how you mounted/installed yours, please?

Chris, I remember correctly, one of the guys from LA had it, I'm trying to narrow it down to who though

If you can search profiles, I believe its someone in my hood (818)... I'mma try the search, hopefully it comes out successful.

Thank you, though.

They are put on with double sided tape on the rear of the sideskirts.
You also want the thinner portion to be facing forward.
Hope that helps, and IMO you should buy some extremely heavy duty 3m tape to make sure those things don't fall off on the freeway.

I don't want to drill any holes in my stock sideskirts, so I've thought about using double sided tape. However, I don't trust that to stay on. I'm probably going to have to fabricate some sort of a bracket.

Why don't you input some ideas instead of criticizing someone trying to help out.

I've contacted multiple of their employees via PMs and through AIM, but none of them replied for days now. Fail.

You got served, Nexx. BTW, GTFO out of thread, man!

I definitely will. However, I don't plan on putting these on until I get other parts. If and when I fabricate a bracket, I might test fit them on long enough for pic, though.
