    Side Sill Extensions

    Finally installed the side still extensions on my '17 ES. The install is pretty straight forward. The only real pain is installing the clear protective film. While I got it on there, it's not as smooth as I hoped. (The second set went way easier.) I go into a bit more detail here, so feel free to take a look.

    I do have to say: I absolutely LOVE the look!

    Did you happen to also drill a hole at the lower edge of the rear fender?

    Yes; I had to drill a hole per the instructions.

    Thanks for the reply. It definitely looks great with the side skirts.

    I was having thoughts about the drilling part, mine didn't come with instructions, the skirts are light as paper so I thought the front retention clips and the moulding tape would be sufficient but then the left rear started to show a gap. I might really have to drill a hole and put clips back there as well.

    Looking good!

    My 2015 has OEM extensions on side and both front and rear bumbers.
    Haven't seen those installed before.
