LOL! I used a vise grip to grab hold of that little white clip and thanks to my gym membership, I was able to pull it out.



Yes, I did forget to mention that flap.

For future reference, there is a little rubber flap at the rear wheel end of the side skirt. I think it's held by a pull out clip.

Just installed my brother's skirts and took us no more than 30 mins. to do.

That's what I don't like about this site...pictures seem to disappear from threads that are more than a couple years old.

anyone have pics of the clips? the ones that WILL break when you pull off the sides. i bought my IPL sides second hand and it didnt include those clips just bolts. OR better yet, are they the same clips that the front bumper uses to hold it on?

This is easier than changing your own oil. You'll break clips like everyone said unless you get lucky. Enycee they are not the same clips that are on the front bumper.
