Do the 03-05 cavalier base models have holes allready drilled underneath that will allow easy install of the ls sport side skirts or do only models that came from the factory with side skirts have holes drilled allready?
Nope hole drilling is required.

Man I cant even get mine off, I couldnt imagine trying to get those bastards to line up properly going on from scratch. But for your question, theres about 7 or 8 holes under the car and then one screw in each wheel well.

You still havn't figured out how to get them things off, jeesh kid, it's been like a month already that you have trying to get them off. When you do let me know, that way I don't have to dick around getting mine off.
I am what I am and it is what it is.
I am the 2nd most untrusted person in the world next to a lawyer,welcome to our dealership, may I help you?

Damnn, the garage guy was all like well if we have to drill holes is gonna be more, man, i really thought the holes where allready there and you just have to snap the things in. How do they do it at the factory if they are mass producing these cars?
Um, they probably have a machine that mass puts them in. WHO KNEW?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! How do they mass do everything Mikey? The side skirts are identical to what my sunfire had/has. You could use 3m tape on the bottom of them. And actually, if you wouldn't drive thru flooded roads, you wouldn't have this problem

would it be that hard to drill out holes under neath the car, and on the wheel well? It can't be too hard, just have to make the holes for yourself if they dont come with them.
What about the front and rear bumpers? Is it just the lip that goes on the bumpers, or do you have to get whole new bumpers with it on?
On the +03 Cavaliers, the bumper cover extension or lip extension on the back and front bumper covers are actually part of the bumper itself. So if you are looking to upgrade to a LS Sport/Z24 front bumper and rear...you will need to obtain new bumper covers.
Well the garage I went to doesnt want to deal with the side skirts for any reasonable price because they say its a custom job and they have to weld up old holes drill new ones, refinish stuff, etc... its going to be "labor intensive" hours of labor for each side totaling well into the hundreds. No F ing way I am going to pay that much for it, so im gonna put them on myself. First I have to fill in and refinish the little holes that were there from my razzi sides because I dont want them to rust, then I need to drill new holes for the LS sides, and then pop them on. Ok, so I have to go get a drill, some jack stands, and the right size drill bit. Anyone know what size hole I need to drill for the clip things? Also, what products could I use to fill in the smaller holes from the old side skirts and what to smooth them over with, just dont want to have water get in them and have them rust a year down the road.

^^ Im in the Boston area, if there is anyone who can do a nice job of installing these I would have no problem paying $50-100. I can meet with someone anywhere within 30mins to an hour around boston. Email me at mmartahus1@babson.edu if you can help. Thanks a lot!

i didnt feel like drilling the side of my car so i when i swaped to the ls sport kit i chose diffrent skirts.
Bostons a little tooo far to go man sorry. But I would have done it for the 50 bucks.
Good Luck man.

man, all it takes is a drill and some screws. it aint tough. just measure 3 times, then drill once. anyone who pays that kinda money to put on stock skirts, is out of their mind. i guess i could maybe see some of the more crazy skirts like type-j or drift, but even then, it shouldnt cost that much. just give it a try, ill bet you surprise yourself how easy it is
