It can be done. As John and others have said, it is also a bitch. The first problem is the bonds themselves. Removing them without ruining the paint on the outside may be difficult. Since it is a sheet moulded car and since the bonding material will release more easily on this type, you may be able too break it out. But it is so easy to damage the outer panel that it would be safer to cut it out and grind the remainder of the bonding strip away from the inside. This is where the grinding that they mention comes into play. This is also where the bitch comes into play. Once you remove everything, including rad, support bumper braces, etc. you should be able to get it in there.

Re: it's a bitch

Thanks guys - Most of the bonding is already seperated or cracked. So, the removal sounds harder that it will actually be. Have any preferences of skirt suppliers and bonding agent? Ecklers...Dr. Rebuild... Corvette central..???

Re: it's a bitch

I looked back and didnt see it mentioned what year that we are talking about. If it is pre 73, I dont think anyone except Corvette Image has the correct ones. Later may be available somewhere else. Ecklers also sell Corvette Image parts so they may have correct ones.
