Ruined Passenger Side Side Skirt - I'm Dumb

[Tomster]

I recall something in the past where this part had to be replaced on another members car. I recall it was a riveted part to the chassis. It isn't impossible, but I recall it was a pain. If the damage isn't significant, I'd leave it alone.

Yeah, leave it but beyond any metal touch up make sure you get the fastener back in there and secure the piece from moving or vibrating. When those clips go missing that plastic hits a harmonic that can be heard throughout the cabin.

I had a rattling noise coming from the passenger foot well that was driving me nuts. I discovered that one of the side skirts was loose towards the front wheel. If I recall correctly a push pin had come loose and it was not riveted. Perhaps part of the side skirt is riveted and part is pushpins?

OP, the side skirt is riveted (2 aluminum ones at the ends) to the painted lower panel of the car. Sideskirt can be replaced without removing the painted panel. I also have a side skirt that is in 90% vs new shape if you are interested (PM me and I can walk you through how to replace and talk about the side skirt I have if you are interested). Good luck with getting the car back in shape!

P.S. I looks like you need the right side and I have the left one. I can still help with some pointers on how to swap it out if you need it.

Why don't you go to carpart.com and show us that they carry that part.

I really don't think you know what you are talking about.

Exactly. www.Car-part.com is a website i've been using since the early 2000's to find parts from junkyards around the nation.

There's a new website I've been seeing ads for lately called www.carparts.com that just seems to be a www.rockauto.com competitor.
