    Im looking for the best way to mount my sideskirts. Self tapping screws? I have no idea. should i put something on the back of the sideskirt where it rubs up against the body?

      I have installed a total of 2 sets of skirts, so I am no expert, but...

      When I do mine I am going to use Urethane caulking, like the crap that holds windshields in on domestic cars. Tough, strong, flexible, waterproof and cheap.

        yup.

        My sideskirts are held on with a single screw at either end, and a bead of industrial adheasive along the whole top edge of the sideskirt.
