very easy, no need to jack up car, unless your car is dropped really low or if your really big...but normally you don' t have to cuz i didn't, bolt on and adhesive...go to www.handaaccessories.com something like that or just go to links on top of this site and find the website close to the site i just wrote down...and look under 2001 civic exterior stuff and you'll find the complete installation in pics and details...

Yea, like skillster said.....It was no big deal......You don't even have to measure the side skirts when you put them on.....it was worthless to do so.........
You might want to have another person help you lift the front and rear skirts.........My sticky shiettt kept getting messed up.....but easy.......[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

I put the sides & rear on by myself, but you'll have to take the front bumper off to install the front skirt. Total time for all 4 pieces was almost 2 hours (including the time it took to remove & reinstall the front bumper) Most of the installation is just common sense

how bout when u install the back bumper... doesnt the muffler get in the way? cuz my muffler is kinda of close to the stock bumper now and if i add on the kit it would be closer wouldnt it?
Installation is vey easy..just make sure you line it up straight, and youre good. as far as someone jacking it,,never seen it happen...but it takes some time to disassemble it.. ive done it for repairs myself...so unless you park in dark alleys for days on end..id say dont worry [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] let me know if i can get ya a kit too..shoot me an email, so i cna check stock for ya.

i was dissapointed on the back and front...its suppose to make the car lower, but it doesn't...only looks lower and not actually lower, but i guess thats a good thing...but gotta admit its nice as hell tho...check out my car!!!!!

If it's easy to install it, won't it be easy for me to get jacked? Never really heard of kits getting jacked, but it's definately a possibility.[hr]
