It's lousy weather here today, but warm enough that I took it upon myself to install the splash guards that I bought awhile ago. They weren't that hard to do, but I did have to remove a push pin on each of the rear tire fenders. I hadn't a clue how to remove them other then to pull really hard. I think I saw someone say that you could drill a hole down them, but I would have had to remove the wheel. Not worth it! Other then that, I did lightly scuff up the rear set with the drill while drilling in the screw that holds the bottom on. I'm not happy about that. I might have to order new ones! So much for an amateur. I will get some better pictures when I give her a good wash when better weather returns... next April?!

I had noticed that the fenders already had rock chips, etc. These should help.

Yes, but you would have to look close to notice the scuffs as a result. Live and learn...
