Installing a side skirt

How hard is it to install a replacement side skirt? I have some curb damage on my drivers side and I saw a used one on ebay that I'm thinking of buying.

Undo the plastic screw clips underneath, rip off old one, put on new one, redo clips. If you can change the batteries in your personal massager you can change sideskirts.

for e92/e93, other than the screws below and rear fender, you will also need to remove door sills then remove clips and you will see some plastic rivets to remove.

If you want good answers then ask good questions. You didnt specify if the sideskirt was OEM or aftermarket, you didnt even say if your car is a coupe or a sedan. On top of that, "is it easy" is subjective, my definition of easy may differ from yours. I just gave you step by step instructions on how to do it on a sedan, if that annoys you, eat me.

I think you know what annoys me and it wasn't your instructions. Grow up.
