Lip install

I have a 99 tl OEM under spoiler is shipping in soon. I was looking to find a way to install. I understand side skirts simple replace the old ones and clip in. But I don't understand how the front and rear work. Online it says they fit over the stock but how do they stay there? Are there clips? Do I have to screw them in?
thanks
James

The 99's dont have side skirts already on from the factory, so you will have to make your own holes, you will more than likely have to use a rivet gun, the mud flaps might have to be removed also as i dont think you can have both the skirts and the flaps. Please post back here with results, im doing this within the next 3 weeks myself.

I was faced with this same challenge for my Type S, the rear installs with some special metal clips with bolts and screws the front requires a number of the same screws, and plastic clips. The side underbody kit has press clips about 6 per side on floor board plus about the same number of clips the pieces slides onto on body of the car.

I sure hope your kits comes with the hardware for the front and rear, the Acura ones come with hardware or should. Go to the parts counter at local acura dealer and ask for install instructions they will copy them for you, mine did. Then you will not only have the how to but the parts list needed as well.
