My skirts are easily removed, completely. When I remove the shirt from the clip, nothing holds the clip on the lip of the wheel well but light mechanical tension. Sometimes the clips fall to the ground on their own after I remove the skirt. I would recommend using some trim tape or black caulk as a cushion between the skirt and the body, because the paint does get scratched, not that I care much because the scratches are under the skirt.

You just got me thinking here. What if I used something like the following with this
metal plumbers tape:
Color coding:
Gray: wheel well lip of the car
Red: metal bracket from bent
plumbers tape
Brown: side skirt material
Blue: screw
Is that similar to what you did?
