taking off me original GSI skirts, dont want to break them as they are sold and paid for so can people please give me advice as how to take them off. I was supposed to be having them taken off by the body shop who are fitting me kit but they keep delaying me. The two flaps that are on the skirts do they just pull off and theres biolts on or something which way do they come off cos do not want to break them ? many thanks people, Paul

the flaps slid off pull them towards u make sure u dont pull them to hard cos u will break the plastice wire behind them

to take side skirts off u need to unclip them from the back

no worrys put when ur taking the two flaps get a screw driver behind them much easy to take off dont pull them to far though cos there are like attached to a plastic piece of wire so u dont lose them i think. suppose it wouldnt really matter there still slide on but just a bit of advice

You sounded like you had got em off but if not.
Each Skirt is attached by about 15 White clips.
9 of 1 type go along the Sill of the car.
6 of another type go on the underside of the car.
The bit by the rear arch is held on by 1 of each type of clip.
The Underside clips you should be able to carefully unclip and then by sliding and pulling the Sill side clips should come off.
All the clips are Pot rivetted into the car so you will have to apply abit of brute force to remove them all.
