after hours of searching, i didint find any useful information about installing EK skirts on DA, so i made a thread a few days ago and no one was willing to htoelp… i finally had time day to fit them on my car.
hope this will help u guys in need of a tutorial
Tools needed:
-Dremel or other cutting tool
-Cutting disc for dremel
-Sanding tip for dremel (optional)
-Masking tape
-exacto knife (optional)
-epoxy or other glue (optional)
1st step:
u will need to trim off all the mounting brackets, these are use on EK to hold the skirt in place… DA dont have clips
u should end up with something like this
next step:
u need to trim off the top flap off the skirt , that flap squeezes between the bottom of the door, since DA dont have skirt, their isnt enough room for the flap
in order to trim it u could fellow the lines on the top skirt (see picture) but i recommend leaving 5mm from the line for a better result
u should have something like this
left untrimmed - right trimmed
next step:
u also need to trim off the bottom of the skirt because is touching the frame off the car
Right: Untrimmed
Left: Trimmed
next step:
Cutting the skirt to the correct lenhgt since the skirt is to long for DA
IF u want to use ur Mud flap u have to cut it shorter than i did
uncut:
cut:
next step:
if u want to use ur mud flap than skip this step…
since u cut the skirt to correct lenght u also cut off the front end cap…
so the next step is to reconnect the cap to the skirt with epoxy or any other binding method u want to use
u also need to cut the cap a lil bit because is to long
final step:
u could use self taping srews to screw to skirt to the car
2 on each en cap and 3 on the bottom of the car
will update when ill have them install…
