How difficult is it to replace the side skirts on my car to the Mtech side skirts? I'm thinking about doing this myself. Does the car have to be on a lift? thanks

Although I did not do it myself (I had the Auto Body Shop install) it is a very easy procedure. It shouldn't take more than 10 minutes a side. There is a very helpful DIY that has detailed instructions along with pics. I think Andy545 did the write-up.

not trying to steal your thread, relevant post
I am thinking of replacing one of my stock OEM side skirts with a bit of curb rash with another stock side skirt. Can all the original clips, fasteners and all other hardware be reused when installing the replacement side skirt.
Thanks

It is very very easy. It took my maybe ten minutes a side.

FYI: They used a jack in the DIY, there isn't a need for one.
