Splash guards...

[P0gKai]

I bought the genuine honda splash guards and I need help intalling the rear ones. My question is: Can I install it without taking the tire off?

You should be able to, if you got those dinky 3" screwdrivers.

all right, thanks..gonna try that tomorrow.

the splash guards was one of the first things i removed from my civic. this is before i knew there might be issues with sand/dirt/etc getting trapped behind the rubber and finely scratching the paint behind it. install them if you feel you need them, but i got rid of them right quick.

I have splash guards on mine, and I dont have that problem.
I think it makes my car look better with em on.

dunno... nothing was scratched when i removed mine, except i had an ugly line from where the splashguard met the paint. nothing my claybar couldn't handle.

to each their own, i suppose i like how my car looks without em. lol... man i hope my ex didn't throw them away, i wanted to sell them on ebay...

I bought them because in here it rains a a lot and it p*sses me off that after I wash the car I have to drive the wet streets and it ruins the car...not anymore

oh i see

btw, to answer your question, u don't have to take the wheel off. you'll just need a really SHORT screwdriver. i used my swiss army knife when i removed mine.

I bought mine without splashguards, wish I had them sometimes after I wash her!

im really happy being splashguardless. i hope my ex didn't throw them away.. . if they're still around when i get back, i'll hook someone up cheap

splash guards look good on, i'd leave em. to get em off just use a stubby phillips

i think on a white car they look good, but my car is black and i think they look better off. but like Anfrey said, to each his own. if i can find mine ill hook someone up, pretty cheap too, just have to find em........should be in the garage somewere
