I installed these on my 23. I had the same issue, so I decided to try it with the help of a friend. I don't remember if I started at the front, or the rear, but I really had to push on the side edge to get it to mate with the body. Heating it seemed to help so it wasn't so stiff. I put the two sided tape on the skirt, pealed a bit back to start and then slid it over the body. While holding it in place, my helper drilled a hole and put a rivet at the end. Then slowly and carefull worked my way to the other end, one rivet at a time. After it was in place, i tried to peal the tape from under the skirt. If it pinched and tore, i used an exacto knife and carefully trimmed the tape away. As I recall, they were a bear to fit to the body as they seemed too tight to form to the body. But woth patience, it turned out nice.
