removing ek sideskirts

painting my lips and skiets but having trouble removing the stock sideskirts.

ive removed the screws underneath but its still stuck there!

any help, thanks

You have to push/slide them towards the front of the car.

yea, getting them back on is just as fun, painted mine last yr, was a fun process, you then have to make sure all the clips under it are in the right position or it won't go back on properly

i've covered this before

here it is again

there is two screws at the front wheel arch of the side skirt.
Then there are three plastic screws that you just undo (don't have to completely take out the screw) under the skirts that act like plastic clips.
Then you push the skirt forward and it should pop off very easily.

When putting back on the car, take off all the white square like clips off the chasis and slide and click them on the inside of the side skirts (to take off the white clips i found it easier to turn them 45 degrees and wiggle them off).
Then just push the side skirt perpendicular to the chasis to pop them back on and replace all the screws

its very simple when you go through it and see it.

hope it make sense
Good luck!

thanks guys.

i got them off easy and just sprayed them.

ill wait a little bit longer make sure they are dry them reattach them.

did you do it by spray cans?
post some pics, i would like to see it done.

nah i bought a $45 spray can from super cheap n paint from autolac.

pretty happy with how it turned out. i should probably redo the rear lip tho its not great.

wow that looks great
good stuff, i also need to get my skirts painted.

yer it looks heaps better than the black plastic.

did you paint your lips/grill yourself?

nup, got them spray painted professionally but when it came to my side skirts, the place said they wont do it as they have this silicone stuff impregnated in it and it wont justify their work if it just peels off easily or later on.

So i wanna try using some spray cans hahaha, maybe sand paper it abit and prep it real good or somethin, but afraid it might turn out crap as.

yer i remember reading something about the silicon.

i sanded it then cleaned it with turps and so far its fine.

did u use plastic primer?

what kinda sand paper u use?

yer i got plastic primer from autolac as well.

and it didnt need much sanding i just used what was in the shed lol.
