HCT Side Skirts Installation

Test fit each side skirt into the bottom edge of the body for fitment first. In some cases, each side skirt might hold into place by friction alone if your City Turbo will be a shelf queen and you don’t want to glue these in place. For running your car under power, you’ll want to glue these pieces in place. Apply a small amount of E6000 glue at the front and rear of the mounting slot (green arrows), preferably applying the glue inside the slot and not the body. Alternatively applying glue to the entire slot might be overkill and will make it more difficult if you want to replace/repair the side skirts later. Best to let the glue cure for 24 hours before running under power.

General Installation Tips For All Parts

Some parts may still have some support tree remnants. Using needle nose pliers can pluck those stray strands off the main part.
You can also sand down the parts to make them smooth, but be aware that it may lighten or dull the sanded area as compared to the rest of the part if you don't plan on painting them (I didn't paint any of the black parts and kept them bare).
If a bolt needs to get through a stubborn hole, a hole reamer, a micro rat tail file, or even a simple hex driver may be all that's needed to make the hole larger for the bolt.
Some of the large flat surfaces with speckled/rough texture may have residual hot bed adhesion glue residue still on them. If you want to remove that slightly sticky surface, simply clean it with warm water and a micro dot of dish soap (and a soft green Brillo pad can be used to help get the residue off faster).
