I bought some kouki skirts off of Ebay and was wondering for those who have put kouki skirts on their 95-96 240sx. How many holes have to be made in the rocker panel? I see the 7 screws that attach to the underside, but what about the clips? I have to also get them painted white, any suggestions on that? Sand down? Thanks for the help!

hrrm. I dont know. But I would sand them then take them to maaco. They do a decent paintjob if you do the prepwork first. the 7 screws you see + at least 1 in each clip. post pics of what you got. Maybe we can help you more.

Use stainless self-tapping screws. Put the skirts on with double sided tape. Put the front screw in. The rear cap screws into this small braket the size of a quater that slips onto the edge of the metal, it clamps down as you tighten. Then go underneath and put stainless self-tapping screws in. Your done. This is how I put my skirts from my wrecked 98 on my 95, good luck.

Here are some pics of my skirts. What size screw did you use and did you screw the little arms of the skirt to the body of the car?

Just use whatever fits the hole. As far as length, 1/2" to 3/4" nothing longer. for the holes on the sides, remove those platic pins, and use 3m automotive grade double sided tape all the way down with the self tapping screws on the bottom holes.
