Body Side Moldings and Splash Guards

Anyone done a self install on either of these? Complete PITA?

Moldings are going for $148 shipped on Ebay, and the splash guards for $110 - both better than the prices my dealer gave me, yet both prices from a dealer...

Moldings look like they do a nice job of breaking up the body line a bit - though I've only seen pictures with the side skirts installed.....

I bought the spash guards off of E-Bay from Acura of Peoria,AZ. They were really easy to install. Was thinking about buying the body side molding,but I think the car looks better without it.
Here are instructions on how to install:

I bought both of these when I bought the car last week. Just installed them. Install was not that bad. Molding comes with templates to make sure they are lined up correctly. Then it's just sticky tape. Splash guards were a little more time consuming, but only because I didn't have the best tools. Make sure you have a right angle screw driver... makes it a lot easier. Both accessories look great...especially together.

The body side molding I had done at the dealer but I just did the splash guards today. Easy! But you will need to remove the rear tires.

Here's my post:

I did not have to remove the rear tires to do the splash guards but it was awful tight. I had to use "stubby" tools but was able to do it slowly. It took a few extra minutes.

Use a 1/4" ratchett with a socket and phillips screw driver bit... No problem to install rear guards with tires on..
