Stealth Mud Flaps

It says all hardware comes with it and you do not have to take wheels off.

I almost bought those, but after reading many reviews here about how bad the rear stealth guards are, I bought these instead.

You don't need to remove the wheels to install the front ones. The fronts come with a metal clip to secure the top of the splash guard along with reusing the OEM screws for the bottom of the guard.. I also used some 3M body moulding tape where the splash guard meets the body.

If your talking about the flat ones front and back then I have them. Flat black color. I like them and they stay put. If I remember right as I ordered them quite some time ago, they arrived promptly. The back ones required you to cut a spacer (supplied soft plastic tube) which I thought to be a little cheesy, but they have lasted and like I said, they stay in place. No rock chips so far so they work.

I'm the same. I'm literally 50/50 with them. 50% of the products I bought form them came in great and have held up really well for almost a year. The other 50% came in wrong or with crappy paint on them and they never responded to my complaint.

I've had them for years, They work great for the price. I have the plain/ black ones, they are Stealth. You can't see them unless they are pointed out. The body color painted, stick out... Enjoy.

You can make those yourself. They look pretty basic.

Hi KBsSS, The past is the past, let's work on the future If you would like to get the splash guards and give them a try, if you are not happy with them you can send them back for a full refund. We have a couple different types of splash guards, this kit we make the front and rear ones, since the rear fender well is recessed there are spacers that you have to trim to make them fit. We also sell ones that come with a GM molded rear splash guards that will be a little easier to install (they are more expensive ) and then we sell the GM molded front and rear splash guards (that are even more expensive) Not sure what your goal is but don't forget use coupon code RPIDON and get 10% off. Please give me a call if you have any questions 888-257-8515 ext 2. Thanks, Don

Thank you everyone for the feed back, whether it is good or bad we want to hear about it. Especially if it is Good But Like I had said in the past if you have a problem I would like to hear about it. I can't fix what I don't know, just give me a call 888-257-8515 ext 2. Awsme SS you are correct they are a simple design and if you got the tools, the skill and the material they could be made at home. It reminds me of a friend of mine posted on Facebook the other night, he was in the mood for Tacos and due to the weather the local Chipolte was closed so he went to Shoprite and bought $16.00 worth of groceries to make the tacos himself. Needless to say he paid more and they were not as good as if he got them at Chipolte. So with this set of splash guards we try to keep it simple to keep the cost down

I do have these. The front splash guards are easy to install. The back ones are a pain as their mounting thingy isn't well built for our car. I have to modify it and use my own adhesive to make it look perfect.

^^^ If you guys want to fix this little hiccup, send me a new bracket and I will test it out. The last time I contacted you guys, you said "no...can't do anything about it".

Overall: It is a very good splash guard...stealth indeed...works great and looks good if installed properly.

*No need to remove the tires...you just need to work around it.
