Question Instructions for Mudguard installation?

Does anyone have a copy of the instructions for the installation of the mudguards on an 03 TL that they can email or fax to me? Thanks!

If you hold up the mud guards to the fender you will see which screws you will need to remove and then just place the mud guard there and put the screws back..simple as that.

The rear will require drilling holes, there are dimples on it already. You can just use the screw provided to drill into the fender. I would suggest you leave the splash guard off because the way they are design they will damage the paint.

Here's a link for 1999 Accord mud flap install. The TL is the same.

i agree with hzm82. they will cut through the paint. if you do decide to put them on see if you can get some of the clear 3m chipgaurd tape and put that on your fenders hhere the mudgaurds are going to sit to help protect the paint from the mudgaurds from cutting into the paint

I know this is a very old thread, but do you still feel the same way? I was about to install a set, but I don't to mess up the paint.

Opinions?
