These were quite easy to put on. I had to cut out the ribs/mounting brackets with a pair of snips. I then used a grinding wheel to flatten them out a bit. This made the skirt flush with my body. The skirts all made of plastic, so its quite easy to cut out. I then added 3 countersunk screws and rivets on the side, and I got a skirt tha keeps it simple and looks better then the stock skirts. And yes yes, thats the stock rim in the back-i got a flat!

Good work. Now perhaps we can end the debate about whether the sides on the hatch are different than on a coupe / convertible.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

I saw some guy that was selling his celica on ebay do them, or he had a shop do them. Thats were I got the ideal, so I got to give him credit.
