Default Installation help wanted...

I just received a set of c7 Carbon side skirts and need help installing them. I would tackle this but don't have the mechanical prowess as many of you. Any fellow San Antonians mind lending a helping hand or know of a good shop around town to get them install? I know some use the included hardware while others use the double sided tape method. Any advantage of one over the other? Thanks in advance.

If you cannot find anyone the help for free, I could install on a Sunday. It would be best to screw or rivet in place.

I had JC's Auto Salon install mine. Very happy with the work, drilled and riveted in, very secure, very reasonable pricing. Not sure what the install broke down to I paid 360 to vinyl wrap the skirts (ordered them unfinished), install them, install my ceramic brake pads and a few other things since the car was already there
