Problems fitting the side skirt, because of door

Im putting on the pakfeifer new look side skirt. But my left door is simply to low, to open when the skirt is mounted. Any ideas how to move it up a little ?

I think it simply sunk down a little during the years

seriously are your skirts molded?..did you use something (screws?) to hold it where your door is ?

There are a few factors. Fiberglass never really seems to wat to fit without some manipulation anyways. But here's what happened to me:

When we originally tried to fit mine there were huge problems that occurred. They were too long and hte door got in the way :) Babyblues mx-3 was actually inspiration for me to mold mine (I even had a pic of his car to show the shop what I was looking for).
I love the way things turned out (check out my page to see).

Good Luck

just grab the bottom of the door with both hands and pull upwards ...at least thats what the so called Bodymen do where I work ...especially when door gaps are uneven :D
