You can get GSI replica skirts from tuning.co.uk
About £109 IIRC

To fit:
mine have a screw through the front arch, two screws through the rear arch and two small bolts holding them to the sill.
Thats how they have been for the last 8 months without any problems

Nope, just fit straight over.
I trimmed the rear of the skirts slightly to fit neatly around the arches, but it was very easy, I actually just used wire cutters to snip little bits of plastic off bit by bit until it fitted perfectly.
