High quality "repro" mtech1 convertible sideskirts
Curious the mounting situation as well. We bought a set from CEP, and after paying to have them painted, and buying all the stock mounting clips, they cracked badly on install.

I am not familiar with cep product although I have heard they are a "flexible" fiberglass......I do have the tabs on the bottom for those who insist on using OEM clips on the bottom .....my "repo"are a superb fit and quite rigid, that and the fact that the sit on top of the door ledge lends to an easy install.
.....do a test fit first!!!
......couple small pieces of quality double sided "ds" strick tape up top.....couple small clamps or small pieces of "ds" tape on wheel wells ...OEM bottom clips if you have them....if not you will now get a good idea about what areas need or could use some fastening from the bottom, they holes where the jack points are very handy to help find a solution
.......quality "ds" stick tape or a quality adhesive on the top ledge
......same for wheel wells. Or pre drill for asst different fasteners (even small tie wraps work great if creatively done
.......OEM clips for bottom (although I think you really don't need that many)
...also you could entertain removing tabs and get creative!
