So I had a chance to try out the j-nuts and did a test fit with my NAVAN skirts. The J-nuts fit the the quarter panels perfectly. Make sure you use #12 sized metal body screw with the large sized head/washer to help distribute the clamp load across the skirt.

I also used new grommets in the front fenders because my old ones where beat to hell. I used an aftermarket company that sells a pack of 25 for about $15. This comes in handy for the rest of the front end. Other parts of the fenders use these grommets to secure them and keep them straight.

As you can see, with the new grommets in the front and the Kouki J-nuts in quarter panels the skirts mount perfectly and hug the body of the car even without the need for 3M body tape. 3M tape is still needed for final installation. Take a look at some pics I took. Sorry about the lighting.
