Default Installing JDM Side Skirts "Complete"!!

Scroll to post #5 for my shitty pics!! Lol!


I need a little assistance fellas. I've search quite a few times for way on how to remove the little rubber flaps (about 1.5 inches long) that appear to be riveted on to the stock plastic side skirts. These little guys are prohibiting the JDM side skirts that I'm trying to mount from sitting flush. The little flaps are located in toward the back of the stock side skirts. I can take pics if that helps, but I'm sure you guys might know what I'm referring to.



Anyone know how to remove them? Thanks.

Lol! I thought about too, but damn near cut through the side skirts when I was trying thin blade hack saw. I'm trying to install them without removing the side skirts from the car. Thanks for the tips fellas.
