If you needed help you could have gotten in contact with me lol. I have my own spray guns/sand blaster/air compressor. That would've helped out so much

Anyone know where you can get the GT side skirts? I've seen plenty of aftermarket kits, but I just want the factory GT/GTP side skirts for my SE

its more than just getting the plastic pieces as i have found out the hard way lol.. you need to get the metal "ladder" assembly to go along with it, its what keeps the skirt from drooping.
alot of times that piece is rusted out pretty bad. i had to scrounge to get mine from my local yard.
on a side note i just primed my rockers, installed the mounting bolts for the ladder i just spoke of. Next step attaching them to the car.

Awesome! Thanks The Guz!
We have some salvage yards here that may have parts, but the times I have checked the prices are kind of high. I will definitely be spending some time and cash on Morad's ebay store!
