I will try and get you some pictures of how I installed mine tomorrow afternoon.
the fisrt picture you have. the 2 holes go to the front of the car where your mud flap is. they should line right up and screw in.
the second picture. the hole does not line up with anything. you will have to make your own hole and selftap a screw in.
the third picture I will have to take a few pictures for you and show you how I did it.
those clips in the last picture you have I dont know what they are. I never seen them before.

instead of using the nut and bolt that came with the skirts that bolt on underneath I just used self tapping screws and a washer. ive had them on the car now for about 5 months I guess and seem to be doing really good.

max785

You put it at angle ? its not strait ?

The backend of the skirt? I had to. It wouldnt go up any farther or I would have cracked the plastic.

max785

lol maybe I'll try to find someting ... :P becose its not cool like that XD

CGaud

sorry to bust in... what kind of skirts did you guys get? R those just the OEM sides?

EDIT: NVM says Type-A @ the top. duh!

max785

ahah can't wait to install these tomoro !! I will try to find a way to attach them

7th Gen Civic

I got some sides skirts. Can't wait to install them. Thanks for the help.

Got a pair of reverb sides and getting a mugen style front lip on monday.

CGaud

lucky dog! I'm still looking for a good deal on the RS Front and OEM/RS skirts

raigen18

Yea, I got the sides for $80 brand new and the front lip will be around $50. Hopefully the installation will go smoothly.

CGaud

Damn....where are u getting these deals? Take some pics when u get then installed.

DarkSouljur

I'm going to pickup the same side skirts and a rear lip for $80 already paint matched to my car , put up some pics after install i want to see them! lol

raigen18

That's an awesome deal. Is this from the person who's selling them on the redliners forum? I was planning on buying the mugen lip from him but the Tunetics shop in Ottawa is selling them brand new for $55.

I'm planning on leaving the front lip unpainted since my car is black but i'll decide when I actually get it. Should have everything installed by tues

Shift-E

Does he go by the name of Apollo? If so, then yes :P I found his add on ottawahondaclub.com though.

DarkSouljur

Funny, the same guy was also selling a front mugen lip. When i picked up the lip and skirts today he said that he wanted $70 for the mugne lip (unpainted) and that he'd give it to me for $60 since i bought the skirt and rear lip.

I have to go visit this tunestics shop now lol

Ps lemme know how long it took you to install, the guy gave me a small baggie with some screws / bracket things but i dunno how many. He gave me some double sided tape and told me to put that on too.

raigen18

Well I just finished installing the sides and front lip about 30 mins ago (started at about 10pm). Had to work outside with a light which sucked lol

The first side took a little bit longer but I got the second side installed pretty fast. I suggest you have another person to help you. The front lip was probably the easiest, it literally took like 15 mins lol

Don't have any pictures right now since it's dark outside. Will upload some tomorrow.

DarkSouljur

Yeah me and Shift-E are going to put mine on in the next couple days, so about 2 hours but it probably would have been shorter in the day, and minus the front lip because i don't have one so maybe like and hour-hour and a half? Not bad, looking forward to pics now

raigen18

Here's a few pics of the reverb sides and mugen front lip (unpainted). Quality isn't great cause it was taken with an iPhone.

DarkSouljur

I just realized that the u and the op are two different people lol.
I got type-a sides, not oem (or reverb whichever you want to say) skirts for $80. I just wanted some sort of lip on my car until i saved up for the reverb ones. How much did you pay? they look great btw.

canadiankid

looking at the pics of your mugen lip makes me excited to get mine next week. i went and ordered it today

CGaud

Are the type-a and oem (non-aero) side skirts compatible in looks? I know the oem ones start to twist just behind the door... It's tough to see in most pics I have found sure to glare or zoom on the pic.

If you look at what billkisme posted farther up in the thread, it gives you a really good idea of how to install them. Start by bolting up the front to the mudflap holes in the wheel well, then line the skirt up level and put a screw through the other end of the skirt into the lip in the rear fender well. after that's done, it's just a matter of figuring out how the middle brackets line up best - this is where you might have to jerry-rig something up, but it won't be seen, so it's not really a big deal

Hi can you please upload pictures of how you guys installed your RS type-A side skirts i want to have a good idea of how to install them properly thanks
