HELP!!! I can't figure out how to install the ABS DYNAMICS x-2 side skirts, they came with some brackets, washers, self tapping and regular screws. How do these bad boys go on? I attached a picture so you can see the parts they came with, any help ASAP would be awesome, I would love to get theses on before dark.

^stuff the side skirts came with^

 

If you find out, please let me know. I just ordered the same kit this week in carbon fiber for my Hot Lava box- I'm surprise there were no details. Thanks

 

I will let you know! The front and back is very easy, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had trouble with the sides.

dude ok heres what i got. I ordered the same kit on ebay as well. Front bumper i have installed no problem so far the side skirts as well i was lookin at on how to install!!! I need to know as well. Because its lookin like something goes into the skirts and the other half goes into something else

 

yeah same thing with me, the front and rear are easy, the sides dont make much sense, someone has got to know.
Keith

 

what does the extra trim do anything. I have the same color box as you but im gonna get my kit paiinted black sadn pearl to go with my carbon fiber look

 

I spent a total of 2.5 hours putting it on since I've never done it b4.

You will need a friend to help you hold the skirts so you can fit it and mount it on the car.

you should have recieved 4 clips with the skirts. a Z shapped clip with 2 holes on one side and a single big hole on the other.

the 2 hole side is screwed into the skirts with the smaller screws. you will need to place the clip on the inside of the skirt and place screw in from the bottom of the skirt into the clips. this will hold the skirts up. (Make sure you do you fitment to see where is the best place to mount the clips on the skirts so the skirts will have a good place to mount on the bottom of the car.)

in my case, my skirts were not 100% fitment. I would say 95%. this is because I saw gaps under my front and rear doors where the kit meets the car. I had to have my help push the kit in towards the car during mounting and that helped cover the gap up a bit.

Make sure after you mount the clips on the skirts you check the mounting point for the body prior to screw on the skirts.

I imagine it will take you about the same amount of time or even less if you have a friend to assist.

Hope this helped.

if you need any additional help, feel free to call me (erased) from Microvan. I will be glad to explain.

Got mine on, Jim was a big help! Thanks,

I just call ABS Dynamics 888-872-1288. They told me the bracket with the 2 small holes gets attached to the body + the large hole gets attached to the skirt. I dont' know who is correct? ABS or Scion life reply post ,as I didn't receive my kit yet??
****Any additional reply's from Scion LIfe Members???? ABS does not have paper instructions for their kits.

 

I put the big hole on the car and the little holes on the kit, works perfect.

 

I will install mine tomm and take some pics to include on here thanks alto guys! so big on car small on kit later

 

Glad that you got your skirts on! my pleasure to assist

 

Microvan did u put ur wheel on the back trunk?

 

As per ABS Dynamic telephone instructions: the big hole on the skirt + 2 holes in the body, will it work better or do you forseen a problem. What your guess? I know you guys installed it the opposite way. Please advise- Thanks

 

I know either way would work, but I did run into a small problem using the big screws[longer] in the body because it has to go through 2 pieces of metal, it takes a little effort to get it all the way in. if you used the short ones [2] it would only go through the first piece of metal and attach eaiser. Either way would work, and I have been driving all day with mine on in the rain and on bummmmmmmpy roads and haven't had any problems at all. Let us know if you have any other questions.

any pics yet ketith

 

yes, I had to take my rear wheels off now that I think about it. front wheels turn so I can put the screws in. rear had to take off the wheels to do so.

 

no no i meant i saw some pics of ur car and u had a rim on the back of ur car on the hatch part is that still there

 

I'll have pix tomorrow, sorry for the wait, I was at a car show all weekend.
