    S side skirts question

    Has anyone on here installed S sideskirts on their 8th gen CE Corolla? Did you notice a difference in the exterior appearance. Someone locally is selling some pretty cheap but i don't know if it's even worth the trouble.

    I used to have Toms back and sides and shyguy front lip but the fiberglass cracked when my dad was driving my car and hit something on the highway. Ideally, I'd want a TRD lip kit but i'm not willing to spend that much money.

    Yeah. It makes the car look more refined without lowering it too much like the TRD skirts.

    Whats the best wat to put them on? I've tried double sided tape, but it doesn't work too well. I don't really want to drill holes under the doors...

    Double sided tape falls off in 2 weeks or so. The skirts have a hole in the front section where you can bolt it to the body. I used Liquid Nails for attaching the skirt to the bottom/side of the car and used self tapping screws to attach the rear section to the wheel well bottom. The Liquid Nails held the skirts in place for around 4 years until it got old and wore off. I reattached them with 2 ton clear epoxy.

    The double sided tape held up for 3 years or so and then degraded. I suggest epoxy.

    TRD Lip kits are nice, but i would perfer the Tom's replica it look more bulkier and it stand out a bit more.

    HEY guys i just converted!!!
