I have a 2002 Sunfire Se. I was just wondering if there were any different side skirts that have the same fitment pattern. I would just like to know if there is a more stylish side skirt that has the same screw pattern on it. Thanks.

GT skirts would be way more trouble than it's worth. He's asking for something that attaches the same as his stock SE skirts. The GT ones do not.
He can use any stock j-body skirts EXCEPT the 95-02 GT skirts or 03-05 Sunfire skirts.
Other than those, they're all interchangable.
Thanks Weasel...I'll take a look at some of those skirts and see if I like anything more than what I have now.
^^^ if they have clips, all he has to do is just 3m tape the door panels and all

The GT and 03+ Sunfire skirts don't use clips. They use plugs that push into holes in the side of the car. There really isn't a flat surface on the back side of them to put tape on. He'd have to drill the holes which is really more trouble than it's worth. If that was the route he was going, he'd be better off getting the RKSport Streetfire sides, since they've got flat surfaces for tape.
Again... he asked what installs the same as stock.
here's a little twist with this post. i'm trying to put 02 skirts on my 99 cav. got the back underneath bolted on, but there's a gap between the outside of the skirt and the car. i tried glueing it to the car, but that didn't work to well. was thinking of drilling a recessed hole and bolting them on from the front, then covering the hole, sand and paint. but then that would really cause a problem if for some reason i had to take 'em off. is there a better way to go about this? or should i just say screw it and put Z skirts on.
...umm better off getting the right skirts that will fit i think, i would personally say scratch it.
but for the original post, is urs a 4dr or 2dr? it doenst really matter but if its 4 ur not going to be able to put any (aftermarket ) 2door skits on witout custom fabrication. (but it all depands on the style) all i know is i boltd mine on the inside lip of the car and the front and rear wheel well

thats the problem i'm having now. i picked up a set of 96z24 skirts for my 02z24. both skirts have plugs but the 96's don't match up with my holes. i tried using 3m tape but it didnt hold it for more than a few days so now i have to drill holes. should be fun.
GO PATS!!!
