basically, i lost my hardware (screws,bolts,clips,etc) for the ms side skirts. i tried contacting a few vendors and they said they don't have those parts for sale. also, some of those parts i can't find at a hardware shop. am i basically screwed?

Ouch....you could probably find replacement bolts and screws and probably the speed nuts, but I don't know what you'd do for the fasteners and clips :confused:

I think someone had issues early on with the fasteners and ended up using gorilla glue to secure the skirts.

Is there a good body shop nearby that might have some suggestions?

yeah, i'm concerned with the clips. i wonder what did the people used to install their replica ms sides...

nevermind. i talked to someone from rosenthal mazda, he said he can order some in a few weeks. he was great with the lighting fast responses! thumbs up to them. :P
