Hi,

i just received my ZL1 addons front splashguard.

I wanted to go with the ACS one but I dont want to drill holes on my inner fender... not on a car slightly more expensive than my annual salary...

ZL1 Addons states that they used existing OEM mounting point, that was the selling feature for me.

When I opened the package and looked at the instruction, it comes with "specially designed" clip to offer a stronger installation but the freakin clip are METAL and they are to be slided in the inside of your fender with pointy edges that will dig into the surface they are slided on to prevent loosing up.

Digging means it will scratch inside the fender and expose bare metal so it will eventually rust because this is where all water will go when using the car in the rain.

Question is do I really need the clips installed or just the lower mounting hole with the plastic pin and the 3M VHB tape will be enough?

It seems the first version of the design did not used any clip.....

I am not going to use those clips, bad engineering, I will return these if the tape is not strong enough.....

Thanks
