Hey everyone, recently bought a set of sportivo side skirts on ebay for $160, pretty good bargain i thort!!! They are even painted the same colour as my car.... However he mentioned in the listing that they are glued on the car not bolted? Can anyone tell me how they actually go on.?? I think they have to be bolted on somehow cos they have different holes in them. If anyone can help that would b great as i want to put them on lol.

there is doubble sided tape that runs around the top edge of the skirts, then at each end there is 3 screws and clips that hold the ends on.

the clips are special ones that clamp onto the car when you screw them up, the doubble sided tape is also special as it has a lip on one side, the holes along the botton are for push in clips (forgot about these in previous post) all of which you are going to have to try and get from toyota.

hrm... i would recommend getting one from the US (check WTB thread, i posted a link in one of the WTB CAI topic) got some for 300* delivered in less then a week so i think u'd save a few buck compared to getting it from toyota (unless they have it @ crazy price!)

* aussie dollar was strong back then..

ok i went down to castle hill toyota this morning. They now have kits to attach the side skirts..Theres a sealer kit and then a fitting kit. The sealer kit has the double sided tape in it and is $143 so im not goin there lol. He said instead to buy the one they use for the camrys which is 6bucks for 2 metres of tape. Then the fitting kit is $60. Ive ordered it in but he is not to sure what is in the kit. I also asked about a TRD CAI, $495!!! N they dont have any at the moment either..

Ken did you buy a TRD CAI for that price? and did you get it by posting through the WTB section??

Here, contact this seller

That is the right part number and all, I got a couple of them from him a month ago and I was really happy with the service.

Roughly 305 each delivered by airmail and it arrived in roughly 5 days(for a pair)

If you were going to get ONE then you'd be paying roughly 320 with the same delivery time.

I got it from EBAY US, it fits both 1zz and 2zz (because mine went on my 1zz and the other went on a 2zz)

If you want ONE posted it would be round 320 aud (maybe more now because aud is weakening but u'd pay A LOT less then that toyota is asking for...

are they exactly the same as what i can buy in toyota here? like including the brackets and that to fit it in? Who is the ebay member that you bought yours from? Mite send them an email..

hey everyone, picked up the fitting kit yesterday for the side skirts n roughly worked out how to put them on as there was no instructions. However one problem i have is that there are two screws to go in the back end of the skirts and there is nothing to attach these to on my car. Im talking about in the rear wheel arch on the end of the skirt where two screws go into what possibly should be a plastic piece around the wheel arch... If anyone could take a photo on their car looking inside the rear wheel arch at the end of the skirt it would be great help...If anyone has put skirts on their car and are in sydney then maybe i could get some help to put them on.
