I've seen the schematic. It's not exactly an instruction sheet.
There are a lot of things I don't know who to do myself, but easy in my book means only having to pay someone who does know what they're doing a couple of C-notes to take care of my problem.

The fat skirts would be in that category for me, and I'd gladly pay that amount to see them go. Nonetheless, they are attached by fasteners, which was exactly my point.

I had side sills off when my first F-type in the shop for bodywork last summer. There were bolts and clips involved. I don't think you can just take them off without doing more to hide the bolt holes and clean up whatever the clips were attached to. Its been over a year now, but I seem to recall the car was fairly unsightly with them off. Not trying to dissuade anyone from trying to get rid of the sills, but you might be doing some minor bodywork and touching up some filled holes as part of the process.
