Installation of M PERF sideskirts?

Several sites say they are simply installed with pre attached double sided tape and that's it...no screws or rivets?

They literally just mount on with bolts, screws, and tape! Takes about 15 to 30 minutes tops!

Yep. I make some of the most beautiful and delicious deserts from scratch you would ever taste. My specialty is a Red Velvet cake where the center layer is a cheesecake and shaved white chocolate on top. Pretty awesome... and modest too





Awkwardly I've actually had multiple men propose to me after trying it. Lets hope they were joking. I also smoke BBQ on my big green egg but thats a whole different discussion.

My local BBQ joint would never guess to thank a bmw forum for my patronage.
Also it's morning. So I have to wait all day. What was this thread about?

With cooking like that, does it matter?

I am installing my side skirts this weekend... havnt looked under the car though. How deep do you need to drill to attach the new blades/skirts? I don't want to drill into the car itself.

My MPE sides did not come with hardware. Are there stock screws we use or do we drill new holes + screws? dmk08 supremepower

They do come with the necessary mounting hardware for the installation. I suggest you go back to the place where you have purchased from, and ask for the mounting hardware.

Ahhhhh man that sucks. I checked my box a few times too.

I just looked under the car it looks like we have to drill + screw our own holes? because I didn't see any existing holes.
