I was always going to try, but of course saw the disclaimer on Tischer site about modifications necessary - didn't want to get involved with that so I went rep...

My rep fit fine lengthwise and match up with front/rear openings, I do have a slight mismatch with the rear wheel opening contouring line as in one of the pics above. Biggest problem was when installed using holes/fasteners along door sill as the skirts were made - they actually bowed in from the bottom of the door along a certain length & were not flush with door.

I ended up using sticks to hold the skirt outward & mock up how much further they needed to stick out to be flush, drilled new holes thru skirt and car for (3) of the fasteners, and used them to attach skirt - now skirt is flush along entire length of door.

There was not enough play in the as supplied skirt holes to get them flush...
Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'll add this is the problem I've got with mine. I'll whip the trim off when it gets warmer and see if there's enough play or drill new holes.

The skirt towards the middle of the doors bows inwards meaning the door sits a couple of mm over.
