Oh ya that's the diagram I saw, forgot it was from Z1. I feel like I tried sliding it out and forward but it wouldn't budge. Maybe I'm just a doof!

Many thx guys for all the hints and tips. I'm sure I get them off this time.
Planning on wrapping them in 3M Di-Noc Black Carbon film.

Btw, thats how my vinyl wrapped side skirts look now.
I copied and transferred over the original GT Edition Decal.

Looks like once you take all the screws off, situate yourself facing the skirt and starting from the rear, pull the backside towards you to clear far enough and then slide the skirt towards the front.

Thank Raf, after reading your post and studying the picture again makes sense now, I was going about the wrong way :facepalm:

By the way, that link doesn't work anymore. I wish someone had taken a video when they removed their sideskirts.

I saw that video, but I am looking for a video that actually shows someone in the moment it is removed from the car. I’m just very uptight about my car and want to know exactly what I need to do.

Download the factory service manual. Look in the signature of any post by forum user SouthArk or there is a stickied thread with link on the forum as well.

The FSM will show you the location of all clips and pawls. I always like to have extra clips on hand. They get brittle over time and will break on even an experienced installer.
