That's my problem also, I think it would be weird with 2 different style guards.

I'm just taking off my OEM mud guard and install the 4 pieces Rally Armor mud flaps on it.

Still seems like a waste of money. I bet I could find you a set of black mudflaps that block debris just as well for a quarter of the price.

Dunno about you guys but I think there are a dozen hundred dollar mods I'd like to do to my car before I think about mudflaps lol

Just received and installed my Rally Armor mud flaps today.

Price was $124.99, plus $23.60 for shipping (to Canada)... PLUS... $21.00 in tax and handling fees (charged by Canada Customs).

Yep, I just paid $170 for mud flaps.... ouch. I went ahead and got the urethane ones now, because I'm doing an 800km trip pretty soon. Couldn't really wait 'til September for the cheaper ones. Oh well, I've got no paint chips yet... and hopefully won't ever get any!


Install was pretty straight forward. There are instructions included in the package. I would suggest downloading the instructions off their website though. The larger, full-color photos in the PDF are more helpful.

I did my install without taking the rear wheels off. It would definitely be easier to do with them off, but I didn't feel like it today. If you go the same route that I did, make sure you have an offset screwdriver.

Also, I think there is a miscalculation on how many screws are needed for the install. The instructions state that there are 12 short screws and 2 long screws. However, I'm pretty sure you need 2 additional short screws. By the way, there are 16 clips and 16 washers, so a total of 16 screws would make sense. I just went into my toolbox and grabbed a few 1 inch, #12 screws and they did the job.

Too lazy for pictures now, hehe.

If anyone has questions, feel free to ask!

ya, I just got mine today and only 14 screws when their needs to be 16, 16 washers... 14 screws.... And I don't have any extra screws, so I had to remove the middle screw from both front flaps to secure the rear ones.

Every time I see these, I imagine how hot they will look on my car then I run off to check my bank account and realize I can't spare the money, then I forget about them and see them again and repeat it all over again...

Cool thanks for your quick help. Pretty easy install, and I really like the way they look. Now I don't shudder everytime i see a little gravel or dirt on the roads.
