Hey everybody, I just got in my sideskirts but I noticed a couple of issues. First of all, in order to put on the skirts, I need to remove the front mudguards, therefore, leaving an opening along the fender line for water and dirt to come in where the mudguard used to cover. Second, I was wondering why my skirts are a bit longer than the side of my car, is something missing like spacers?, I bought these from toyotaworld. Thirdly, I know that I am missing some of the mounting parts because I just bought the skirts alone, but I know they can be mounted simply without the toyota parts like all the protectors. One thing however is that the skirts look like they slide in along the side of the celica, but the holes of the skirts don't line up to anything. How do you mount the sides? It does not look like double sided tape can hold most of the skirt up because of the fact that it has an angle. This is difficult for me. I tried to read stickies and some of the threads but did not seem to find anything specific to my problem. Can anyone help?? I wanna put these on badly, I want to fit it on factory-wise but I again if I decide to remove the skirts later, I don't want it to look like it was majorly drilled or modified. Help Please, I know many of yall have these on. My last resort is to take it to a Toyota Dealer for them to do it.

i've heard on the UK forums that ST205s have a ~2cm longer wheelbase than ST202/ST204. perhaps Toyota World sent you the side skirts which were originally meant for a ST205?

i have a set at home off a 96 ST202.. hopefully when i install them this summer, i won't have the same problem.

shoot some pictures of the back of the skirts and your car, and will help you get them on
