they do bolt on on the bottom and sides i think, but its the top that looks like it needs to be flush with the body

I'm about ready to put on my OEM skirts too. I've heard too that they don't mount on to the sides tight to the body. How did you guys do that? Do you guys have pictures of yours? Also, how does the back end of the skirt look like, is it screwed or riveted on? I know the Matrix and the Corolla skirts are not as close to the body of the car. I'm guessing no heat gun was used or they made it like that for factory removal with no damage.

Yes, that's I would like to know too. My plans are to mount some SS-III side skirts. I have a list of useful parts like screws, washers, grommets, clips etc. I really wish to know what for all of this... where to use it? ...is it some special kind (only for skirts, or just common for anything else)?
