Wife stepped on side skirt....
My wife was getting out of my evo and stepped on my side skirt. Other than divorce her, is there a fix?

The clips were basically separated from the side skirt but I pushed it up on there and heard several clicks however it still has a clip that won't really stay and it sags a little. Any suggestions to save my marriage?

Get new clips and release her from the dungeon when you are no longer angry. Just a car, just clips, you can re-do anything on these cars with enough replacement clips.

Find her best pair of knickers and wear them.
That'll teach her!

You have screws holding it on as well.
Take screws out and remove the skirt (just pull. Or have the wife step on it... )


You may have to replace some broken white plastic clips.


+1 for double-sided tape.

I admit that I hate my side skirts.

LOL, divorce wife. Now that's funny! You can get replacement clips at Autozone or Amazon. Industrial 3M double sided tape can be found at home depot.
