crap fitment as usual... try a heat gun.. and if that doesn't work u might have to cut and fill in areas. goodluck
the front of that looks broken, hope you get it fixed
haha cause your not putting it on right....
remove your kick panel (the plastic piece on the bottom of the door sill)
and that lip of the sideskirt sits on that just push it in and you'll be fine

Hey Dan i tried to do that. (aaron was telling me to try it) When i try to do that it wont even come close to go where the door sill plastic would be at. And that peice isn't broken. Thats how the skirt looks when its not on right.
I dunno Matt, it looks like it's not even pushed up enough in the doors to me. Maybe take your door sill off and see how that works. If you're still having troubles, I think a heat gun should take care of the problem as dustin said. Good luck bro, can't wait to see the finished project.
your just trying to hard...step back don't think too much
and just sit it straight on down
you might have to sand the inside a little though

Ive got the same skirts and had the same problem.
First take your stills off, Trim the skirts at the front with a hacksaw, use a black marker to help mark where u need cutting. What i did was drill through the bit of the skirt tht goes in the door wings right through and temparaly put in a bolt, check your door can close. On my skirts i had to use all my streight and force it againest the door still then drill. This worked and the door could close.
Then where the holes r add 2 layers of fiberglass. Pain and funny to use.
Take off kit and sand, smooth or retrim down.
Then paint and put on, someone on here told me to use reverts to hold in place. And drill at least 3 holes to make sure it doesnt come out. Also use double sided tape on the rear end of the skirt so there is no gap.
