How do I install poorly moulded sideskirts? I bought these side skirts off ebay and they are like 1 inch too short. They are are also kinda twisted a bit. Anyone know how I can install these? I did some googling and people say fiberglass side skirts usually needs to be cut then lengthened with more fiberglass. Anyone done it before? |
yea its not hard, but not fun to do go to can tire, buy fiberglass cloth/resin. cut the side skirt in the middle and get a flat surface to place the side skirts. use a piece of 1/8" or 1/4" wood and screw/hot glue the inside bottom of the skirt to make sure its level and even. start adding the resin / fiber cloth in small coating and try to follow the lines of the skirt. keep going until the fiberglass is 1/16" thick then add bondo on surface and sand till it matches your side skirt details. remove the piece of wood if possible |
Throw them in the trash. |
drill and zip ties |
Trash them and dont buy body kits off ebay next time. Posted via RS Mobile |
ebay kits :fuckthatshit: But if you are going to do some fiberglass work, always always gotta wear gloves.. I've had some bad experiences going gloveless with fiberglass :okay: |
I came in to write install them into the garbage, but dukes beat me to it. Let it be a cheap lesson not to buy shitty quality stuff, before you waste more money for it to be an expensive lesson. |
I wouldn't even bother, throw them in the dumpster and wash your hands Posted via RS Mobile |
if there slightly warped you can just bake them on a flat surface... it does work, but shortness?.... ahhh JUNK BIN |
Dealt with ebay kits before..fitment is almost always awful. should stay away from that stuff. hell, even some brand name stuff needs modification to fit properly. hindsight 20/20. |
