mat290490 Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Hi all I noticed the other day that my passenger side skirt has decided to detach itself slightly from the car - i hope its not a major problem so was wondering whats the best way to cure this? Cheers in advance And heres a couple of pics showing both passenger and drivers side for comparison Quote
Lexx Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Press it back in. You've probs clipped a curb or speed hump and its popped the clip. Though it could have snapped the clip, in which case you'll need a new clip. Quote
mat290490 Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 oh sounds simple then.. Cheers for the reply Quote
mat290490 Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 Just had another look and it seems someones used a double sided sticker thing to hold it on... quality repair Quote

mat290490 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 How easy are they to change? cus seems like theres nothing to attach this clip on to Quote
spawn Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Theres 3 brackets that hold the clips on the skirt, maybe they have broke off? The clips are a couple quid each, and push into the female clip in the sill. Hope this helps. Quote
Greddy-Matt Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 If the skirts were pulled off rather than easing the poppers out the brackets snap off Quote
mat290490 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 Took it to the nearest nissan garage to see what they'd say, apparently its an £700-£800 job as i need a whole new skirt which needs painting and fitting as the clips have "come off". This sounds like crap to me and they are just looking at ripping me off. Can anyone point me in the right direction for these clips so i can atleast attempt to do the job myself? Cheers Quote
Lexx Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Bloody Stealers. clips are like £1 each or something. I am assuming the 3 brackets are still attached to the skirt? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Clips in stock Preowned skirts also in stock if the brackets are broken Alex. Quote
mat290490 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 if the brackets are definitely broken am i forced to get a new skirt? Cheers for the fast reply Quote
ZMANALEX Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 if the brackets are definitely broken am i forced to get a new skirt? Cheers for the fast reply Well you require the brackets intact as the clips slide into them. It only takes 5 minutes to pull the skirt completely off the car, but be careful and not do any more damage. Alex. Quote
mat290490 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 Oh right nice one, ill buy some clips and brackets ASAP then Cheers Alex Quote
