The rear spats take about 5 minutes to install

The website mention that" An optional 6mm hole with bolt can be installed for additional stability."

Do you think this is necessary to drill the hole for additional stabilize?
Thanks.

I didn't install it and I know others have not also. It's very stable the way it is now. Even with the optional extra screw I can't see how it would make a night and day difference.

Third possibility might push HT Auto to develop the side, Bayson R rear and STI rear. ><
Thanks.
Thanks for the suggestions, that means wait...wait until these guys come out the whole set to avoid mis-match or re buy.

I hope there will more people send the mail to these companies instead of wait.
I believe them also want to see how much demanding now.
That’s why they do not release soon.
Thanks.

Early present. Side skirts just arrived. The two different brand plastics match color/look perfect so no worries there. Now just need to get them installed...

Do you mind scale those skirts before install and let know the weight?

So I just put the rear spats on. Easy as pie. I even put the two "extra security" clips in. They did add a bit more stability, worth the 2 minutes it took to drill those in.

The side skirts.. well they line up good with the body lines etc, HOWEVER there is no provision on the car to mount them. Looks like I am going to have to self tap them into the rocker panels. For whatever reason they include some screws and than some nuts and bolts. I can't find anywhere you could actually use a nut and bolt on this car.

So I am going to install those when I get back from PRI on Monday.

I am going to put some double sided tape on them to get them to stay nicely than self tap them in.
