Everything I've seen on youtube has been about the pros. What about the downsides? I'm heading to the body shop tomorrow to request some paint work done along with the install and I wanted to request they use nutserts for easy removal.

Thoughts?
Isnt there only thin abs on the underside for the side skirts? Im surprised that nutserts could hold in just thin abs without just spinning in the hole or pulling out easily.

Well I wasn't sure if it was possible or a good idea. But it seems it is possible.. I haven't decided yet how I will install them though.

Did you get them installed with the nutserts yet? If so how did it turn out?
