well my plans were to fit the side skirts to my zt today, fitted one side all went well, good fit etc, then went to do the other side which requires breaking clips off to remove something which i done, put the glue on then put the other one on and they sent me two left hand ones, so now have my car with one on one off. hopefully be able to sort out another from rimmer bro's today and get it sprayed asap and have it finished by the week.

before

after

and the broken part that hopefully wont fall off as its held on with glue

It makes the car look even lower and even sleeker, fantastic job!

Kandyman · 16th February 2007, 07:08

looking good

how about some part numbers and cost of parts.

pmessling · 16th February 2007, 16:45

they are all on the x part website or they are also in the rimmer bro's mgrover catalogue. £76 per side sill same for both the mk1 and 2 and £42/56 for the mk1 and 2 bumper extensions. plus the cost of getting them sprayed which in my case £100. fitting is really easy, i haven't used the double sided glue strips but some proper glue, i did use the supplied 3M stuff for the bumper extensions as i wasn't sure about them at first, but they really suit it

VUB002690LML bumper extensions, make sure when ordering you quote what MK it is as they are different
Left P/N: DDJ000410LML sill
Right P/N: DDJ000400LML sill

rimmer bro's was cheaper when i ordered.

after a long painful wait i'm picking up the righthand side skirt tomorrow and will be fitting it straight away, hopefully the glue i used to hold the trim back on will come off, cutting it close for the haynes meet, but will be finished at last.
