So which is it? Are you drilling a net new hole or not to install this product?

Yes. ONLY on rear

Mine are being delivered today--install will need to wait for a good cleaning and warmer weather, but I'm hopeful these will cut down on the amount of crud that ends up behind the wheels!

No modifications at all. No drilling anything. They use factory lining screws and screw holes. Fyi.

not for the rear it’s show you need to screw into the liner with a spacer to make a hole

Mine is night and day. I no longer hear the debris bouncing down the side of the car

My mistake I guess that is a modification.

Just to clarify things up regarding the rear install. We supply a small #8 screw so it doesn't leave a noticeable hole in the rear liner. You DO NOT need to drill the bumper. This screw is NOT mandatory, but will help secure the flaps in place and relieve some stress off the tape. I would recommend using it if you drive in harsh winter conditions.

Thanks for the clarification--I received mine yesterday, and was pleased with the product and packaging. Looking forward to installing soon!

Hey guys!
I've been playing around with the design and was curious about your opinion.
How do you like the new front flap honeycomb pattern?I was also thinking using the same pattern for the fender vent mesh. Verdict?

 

[Yorkman1]

I think the fender mesh should be a little thicker. I don’t mind the thick mesh on the flap itself as it will stop anything bigger that would hit the bottom 2/3 of the fender mesh.

Agreed, I'll fine tune the final design. This was just a test to see how that'd look.

Those who installed these rock guards. How are they holding up? Debating my options and I like how these are adjustable but not as intense as the RallyArmor.

No issues. Only have about 300 miles on them

I know a few local guys, including myself, that are driving the flaps in harsh Canadian winter conditions. They are holding up flawlessly.

They really help kick off that frozen chunck of snow often stuck between the wheel and fender liner.

Thanks for sharing! I'm originally from Detroit and don't miss those ice chunks at all!
