not sure how much the side skirt is but you will also need new fixings as you have to break them to get the skirts off, I know the parts to fit it come to about £6 per side

have you looked for a side skirt on ebay? If not i'd just try phoning your local dealer, prices probably vary between them anyway.

wow one skirt for 52 pounds, i d take it back for a refund and get on ebay and buy a set of cooper s ones for less then get the clips 12/13 quid for the whole lot..

i wouldnt pay 52 quid plus clips for one side to have it back as it was. make the most of a bad situation rip the other one off and put some better ones on.


as for fitting easy, id never done it before and i did it in no time.

look here
