How to secure Side skirts?

Are there any videos showing how to add Carbon fiber side skirts on an AMG gts?

i would like to get some skirts whose Carbon pattern matches OEM Carbon fiber. Any suggestions?

You might need to make some incisions

Nah, just talk to Renntech, for the $$$ they charge they will talk to you for hours LOL.

I would wait just a little bit longer as well, as there will be more options in a few months once these cars get delivered.

I don't mind getting my hands dirty not bloody
i was wondering if anyone did it themselves . I will get my car wrapped . Should I have them install the side skirts before wrapping or after?

Do you think $2600 is too much for carbon fiber side skirts? Any other manufacturers I should check out?

brabus makes some. I don't like their entire kit but the side skirt looks cool. Maybe it can be bought separately.

They were not in stock. No images on the internet or their web site. Lower than both. Circa $1600
