Hey dude,irm first just offered them up to see where they sat
They screwed some self tap in screws in either side of the skirts,where the fit onto arches,then just a bead of tigerseal all the way down but making sure the seal come above the skirts as you press them to the car or they wont stick properly :)Once held on,wipe seal of where its come through onto the car and duck tape it all way down and leave over night
Hope this helps with how to do it

iv always wanted a gsi bumper for the front fogs cus its pretty sweet imo but a splitter might be cheaper, altho its not much cheaper and u dont really change the front end much
problem with gsi front bumper is u have nothing to split the colour up e.g. no black plastic like on ur bumper :/

Ye i know,if i was going to get a GSi bumper i would probs have to colour code the whole car and could get abit ecpensive lol,i do like the Irmscher splitters though

i've got a gsi bumper to go on mine, but finding them with fogs, grill, splitter is really hard and not cheap. i've also managed to get a front fog light switch, the loom for the fogs and am trying to get the wiring for the back of the fog light switch.
then once you've got everything you need to get the bumper sprayed and get the whole car colour coded which means buying gsi arches and the rear bumper too, as any good body shop will tell you the standard arches and the top of the bumpers wont take paint and will end up flaking. then if you want you got to get the skirts, L pieces, and jacking covers which any one whos tried finding will tell you is like finding hens teeth.
basicly its not gona be cheap, but i think it shud look awsome
