i recently bought some oem sideskirts that came off of a kouki s14. for some reason my zenki doesnt have any holes for them thumbtac things (the things that holds the sideskirts onto the car, dont know what they're called). do i need to drill some holes or......? any tips? im not really sure what to do. anything will help. thanks alot.

they will fit but like you said you dont ave the correct holes.

the reason for that is because your car " wasnt made " for side skirts. you will ahve to drill the hoels needed but be very careful not to drill to far. also make sure the hole is just big enough to get the clips in there

i didnt even drill holes when i put mine on, i just glued the **** on really well with some silicone based glue and 3m double sided adhesive for the part that touches under the door+ 2 screws in the ends. should work if your lazy and don't feel like buying jackstands to fit a drill under the car

What I did was to just drill 3 holes underneath one at each end and one in the middle, I used an L shaped drill attatchment so I didnt have to jack the car up and even used the oem screws for the bottom with some thread locker and the oem hardware for the fenders. Then I used 1/2 inch 3m body tape the black one and put a long strip end to end right where it touches under the door just clean each surface good with alcohol or something. They are on real good and no visible holes were drilled!!

what do you guys use to hold the top part of the sideskirts up? got the bottom piece drilled on but the top piece kept hangin, wont stick onto the body. sigh..... so frustrated! should i just take it to the shop? how much would it cost me to have a body shop putting it on for me?i dont know im just saying. anything will help thanks.

3m double sided adhesive tape, the oem sides on koukis dont touch, i looked on my brothers and there is like a 2mm gap, but i used the tape on mine jic

Well, the front uses the oem mudflap screw hole and bolts right in and the back should come with a U clamp thing with a screw that clamps on to the lip of the fender then it's just the double sided tape as close to the top as you can and remove the rubber strip that's at the top that touches under the door and clean it up real good before you put the tape on it.

What I did was to bolt it up using the oem mudflap screw and the U clamp until it looked even and press it up under the door while I marked the holes underneath with a sharpie then drilled my 3 holes underneath, then put the double sided tape on the sideskirts but dont pull off the side that touches the car yet! After its all bolted on then you grab the corner of the tape and peel off the tape protector...you might need tweesers to grab a corner unless you make it stick out some before you bolt it up and press as you pull and your all done.

Hope you can understand all this!!

I think thats because of the rubber strip on the sideskirt that touches under the door, you just cant see it because it's not at the very top of the sideskirt, that's why I peeld it off so the tape would sit flush and make good contact under the door.
