I have a big gap where the 2 pieces of the OEM sideskirt meet. Is this normal? Or can this be adjusted?

 

normal. mine is the same way

 

The gap on the passenger side isn't as big. I am just wondering if it is going to split open over time or not. I bought the car used so maybe the previous owner had a different sideskirt on and put the originals back on?

 

the side skirts get screwed into place in the wheel-well and slide into place. I doubt they are going anywhere. make sure the screws are tight

 

the gap is how the side skirts self-adjust themselves to each individual car. as u can see, the skirts are 2 pieces that slide-lock into each other. once they are slipped together and put on the car they'll slide in or out a little bit to fit.

 

thats normal. like someone said they are better or worse depending on the car, as well as color. some show the gap more than others. no worries.

 

my brother and i both owns TL 3G and we have the same gaps, so to me its normal! it doesn't bother me at all!!

 

I was parking the car tonight, backing into the space, and heard something dragging on the asphalt. Opened the door to find the side skirt dragging. I managed to pop it back into place, but it is loose. I couldn't see the clips and frankly didn't look because it was dark.
Can it be popped back in and STAY? Do I possibly need new clips? Is this an EZ fix? anyone have any experience w/this?

Thanks much!

the body shop fixed it for free. clipped it back on, but one clip was missing so he replaced that.. can't beat that. so i gave the guy a $20 bill.

 

My gap is so big, there is a hole showing. I've just left it alone, assumed because both ends look correct, there is no way to get it to look right everywhere.

 

^^ Picture?

 

It's like this on both sides:

 

no it's not normal to see the hole. there should be no more than 1/4 inch between the two skirts.
