2003 Side Skirt Question

[Karl_Cooper_S]

Just a quick question, sure someone will be able to answer it straight away.

My drivers side, side skirt has cracked. How much would this part be without the silver cooper s sills and clips etc? From a dealer. ta

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.

Is it an aero skirt or the normal black one?

[Karl_Cooper_S]

Its was just a normal black one, rang my local dealer and have brought one for £52. but need to order the clips as i didnt know you had to break the old ones off, which sucks ! any fitting advice?

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.

edit: ignore me i just noticed you have a cooper s by your user name . id still buy one off ebay or a new set, prob still less than 52 quid.

Not sure you can, i have been looking for ages for some on ebay and they always crop up but for the wrong model i.e R56 etc. I know its a lot but just got fed up and wanted it done. Thanks alot for the guide that is just what i was looking for.

I have a set of R53 black side skirts in my garage if your interested.

Cant courier but if you can get to West Sussex you can pick them up

Tried to sell on ebay but cause i cant courier they didnt go

Would rather sell as the set

Let me know
