FX3D rock guards

That looks pretty nice! Certainly, much better than any of the red mudflaps I often see tacked to 10th Gen Si's (why, guys, why?).

When you get a chance to drive in some sludgey wet winter weather, can you share your thoughts on how clean they help to keep the rear of the vent/front of the door region?

That area seems to be a magnet for filth with my FL5, even in seemingly clear weather.

I don’t drive in the rain if possible. Could take me a long time to get caught ……. It’s a weekend toy

Had some more time to work on it today. The rears are really easy and I like the amount of protection you can give yourself.

Hehe nice! You went full protection mode
I mean, the adjustment is mostly useful in the front if you run wider tires or lower offset wheels. In the rear, you basically just need to cover the bumper inner lip, but it's nice to be able to decide how much they poke out and fit the look you prefer.

I noticed on other cars that I had that had spats/guards when you’re turning you would still get some kickback. So so kept em out a little ways

Ugh ok fine, I’ve seen enough. I ordered a set. Make sure they send you your commission.

question, is there a way to install the rear mudguards without drilling the extra hole?

From what I see in the installation instructions, they're just using a drill with a screwdriver bit, not actually drilling a hole.

Yeah it’s just screwing a screw into the lower fender liner

If you do not want to make a hole in the composite liner do u think a pice if vhb hold it ?

 

[Snmtazz70]

They use factory lining screws and one drilled into wheel liner.

 

[Yorkman1]

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

Rear's have you use a screw that isn't a factory hole.

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

i dont think it would, the lower hole has a spacer that is used as an adaptor. the screw is so small no one could even realize you put a hole there.
