Jacked the car up and the sill/skirt popped off the car a bit at the front. How can it be sorted? Ignore the dirt as its been lashing it down up here

best way id say was stickaflex, the fucker would never come off again, problem is it comes in a big tube like silicone, if you dont mind that get down to your local body shop, not sure what the proper name is but as for strong panel bond.

Lift it back to place, and a small self tapping screw through from inside the wheel arch.... Obviously drill a pilot hole.

The white bit inside looks like a fixing block that must have secured it from factory. Do I take it that is now no good?

Go B&Q and get some stuff in a tube called evo stick seriously strong, its in a black tube ( you dont need one of those guns ) with silver and red writing, think its £6 for a tube, clean the inside up and squirt some of that inside it and then put the jack under it to hold it upto the car, i stuck my spoiler on with this stuff and ive pushed the car down the road, it does what it says on the tube ! lol

That's what I'd prefer. How do the clips fix on?

The clips.just slide in to the sill cover then pushes in to the wing. There is a 30torx and a 7mm screw that hold the bottom of the cover in place.either take.them out or undo them so you have a bit of movment on the cover to help it line up a bit better when refitting.it
