I WAS LOOKING AT MY LITTLE ACCIDENT (I STEPPED ON THE SIDE TRIM WHEN I SLIPPED ON ICE GETTING INTO MY CAR ) AND I REALIZED THE OEM SIDE SKIRT HAS CLIPS MOLDED INTO IT THAT SNAP INTO CERTAIN HOLES AND THEN IT USES THE BODY COLORED SQUARE CHRISTMAS TREE PLUGS THAT SNAP INTO THEIR OWN HOLES WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY I THINK MY CAR HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE BECAUSE OF THIS AND THE BELLYPAN SEAL IS A MESS AND THE REAR BUMPER IS A SHADE OFF AS WELL AS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR BEING A 1/2" OFF SPEC SO IT KIND OF POKES OUT A LITTLE BUT WHOEVER REPLACED THE SIDE SKIRT JUST STUFFED THE OLD ONE ONE THERE BECAUSE THERES NO WAY I BROKE ALL THE CLIPS YES THATS RIGHT ALL OF THEM

ANYWAY DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CANT GET AN OEM SIDE SKIRT?
AND I NOTICED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IT STILL HAS THE OEM CLIPS HOLDING THE SIDE SKIRT ON TO WHERE YOU WOULD PUT THE MUD GUARDS THEY ARE NOT THE BIG CHRISTMAS TREE ONES THEY ARE SMALL ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PEA AND BLACK AND THEY HOLD ALOT BETTER THAN THE BIGGER ONES DO DO YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THOSE TOO?

THANKS FOR READING -CHRIS

IIRC, there was a thread a while back where members would give away stuff they no longer needed. i think it was called "pay it forward" or something like that. anyway, i remember someone was offering them (rocker panel cladding) in several OE colours.
i'll try to find the thread for you.

I had an incedent with my side skirt a while back and a dealership asked me if it fell off? I'm like yes thats why I need one, parts guy say no did it fall off or did you do something to cause it to fall off, these are a warranty item, so sure it fell off got it for free! just had to pay for paint.
