Default Bodykit installation

Yeah so i got this 88lx that was crashd in front so i took my old GT bodykit that i had laying around an put on the front bumper an two front bodykit pieces but im caught up on the sideskirts i mean, the fenders i have on the LX are for an LX so there's no holes made for the sideskirts to attach to..any ideas? im sure the best idea is to buy two fenders off a GT but that costs money an more work..any ideas to make the LX fenders work with the gt sideskirts?

do you have the mounting brackets, if so you just need to drill holes for them if not you need to get them

I just removed my GT kit, and replaced it with LX bumpers and molding. There are some plates along the fender, rear lower quarter panel, and rocker panel that hold the GT kit into place.

Alot of the import cars like my wifes honda, use the double sided body molding tape to support most of the kit, however i dont think this would hold up quite as well on the GT kit because of how it is formed.
