What holds up the side skirts on our cars?

[Brandywine050]

In the middle of my car the side skirt that has been replaced is hanging down in the center. but i look up and there is a big hole in the body where a big clip of something goes. not just a normal bolt. does any one have a picture or comment of what goes up there! any input would help, thanks in advance!

Interested in this too, mine is doing the same thing.

It's a 2 piece clip, one part goes up into the cavity and the other is a body clip that holds the skirt to the body by snapping into the clip in the cavity. It's purchasable from the dealer, but they're expensive. the cavity clip is $13/pop and the body clop $18 a pop. So if you're missing 2 whole clips you're already in about $62. They're proprietary too, so it's difficult to fix it without using the clips.

I'm starting to get used to this sort of thing. Is that bad?

magic...

i was under the impression it was held on by industrial strength velcro...either way, you could spend $60+ or spend $5 on the black double sided 3m tape...same thing happened to my car, used the tape, and has been holding strong for about a year now

Is it numbers 10 and 12 the hold up the side skirt?

[blmlozz]

yes, 11 are just the nuts that screw on the threaded studs.

why thank you sir! luckly my brother works at an audi dealer so i wouldn't have to go on the pars guys that know nothing. hopefully i can get them some what cheap and fast. and even more so hopefully they work and hold up my side skirt!!
