Hi there,
I have a Mazda 5, 2006, that my wife drove into some protruding re-bar (she actually did, this is not me blaming her for my bad driving). The side skirt has come about half way off, with out six or seven of the mounting clips (I think those were the mounting clips) appear to have been snapped off. I have tried looking in other threads, but have not found anything this specific (but honestly I am not at all car knowledgeable, it took me two hours online just to find out the side skirt / mounting clip information). Do I have to take this to the dealer and pay for the whole new side skirt (hopefully not), or do I just have to get some of the clips, somehow take the skirt off, replace and reattach? We are not going to drive this past next year, as the car is too old to have any value here in Japan (anything after ten years gets way to expensive car tax wise). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I can post more pictures soon, just the one for now.
