Picked up brackets from powder coater and purchased double side tape that supposedly is made only for automotive trims and it had high strength glue.

I got the front end assembled today, unfortunately it took about six hours to get it all together, I really like how it turned out.



Door moldings and arch trims need more adjustments but it’s pretty close.

This last weekend I finally end up painting rocker panels and it took lot longer then I was expecting. If you guise remember US cars have rocker panels coated in black under coating and when Euro skirts are mounted most of top black coating is visible and it just doesn’t look good in my opinion. I end up leaving other half portion of coating on rocker panel as this coating is thick and it’s great protection and way better then paint.
I should also add that I drilled holes for Euro skirt mounting clips and  welded those little holes that were holding US body kit, nice and flat now.
