How y'all change your tire w/ the side skirts? Do y'all remove the skirt everytime you need to change it? It looks like you can change the front tires w/o removing the skirts but the back (which i need off) the skirt covers up the sport the factory says to use to jack up. Just wondering if there is any other way. Thanks.

I almost fcuk up like that myself. my repair guy was trying to jack it up and i noticed my sideskirts getting pressed while he was doing it and i managed to stop him at the nick of time. phew!

its a real hassle to repair sideskirts as f/g shop really prefer to sell complete kits than repair your damaged one so the always find excuses.

you can safely jack up the Celi from a lot of places. just find a nice thick looking position and put some piece of wood to avoid slipping and you are set.
