Installing side skirts??

Did you guys have to jack up your car when installed your side skirts or rear bumper, I'm gonna be putting on my Xenon sides and rear, and I am wondering what the easiest way to install these would be.

It's easier if you install them when the car is jacked up.. so more room for you to work with.

Just jack the car up from the rear to do the sideskirts, screw into the fenderwells and use very strong double sided adhesive in the door sills...you can also screw here as well if you prefer, but i didn't. If your car is lowered, you may have to use your stock jack to jack up the sides then put a bigger jack next to that once you get it up enough, then you can install your rear. It's not necessary to jack up the rear, but it does give you a more comfortable working area. You may or may not have to take out your rear lights...the first time i installed I did, the second time I don't think i did. Good luck.

So, did you just jack up the rear and turn the front wheel to get the sideskirts on?
