Here are a few pictures;
1) ran to Walmart for some screws and washers
2) Placed the car on ramps to have a bit more access
3) cleaned the CF skirts and underneath the body panel with alcohol
4) placed 3M double sided tape throughout the entire skirt except in the rear section as that part there doesn’t make contact on the panel
5) sat the panel on the skirt; started from the rear section and made my way to the front. Again, this is the part where you wanna pay attention to your preference of aggressiveness.
6) grabbed a few chairs and sat the panel upside down to drill the screws in
7) popped the panel back in to the car and inserted the OE rivers and screws
I’ll probably redo the install to tuck in the skirts in a few weeks. Reminder: do NOT step on the skirts. I nearly did when I got out of the car as I forgot I had them there

Looking good!

ZeD4Mr, we really need you to make a matching piece for the rear bumper, looks lonely back there.

Yes, it'll be the next major piece. Design is 80% finished. Then we'll do the 2 piece lip.
