L5 splash guards
I just removed the altec splash guards and replaced them with the L5 set and just thought I'd post a pic of em, the install was super easy but does require that you drill 2 holes other than very quick and simple to install and in my opinion they look much better than my other ones, especially with the direction I'm going with the car.

Looks great. Just wish they would come out with a set like that that did not require drilling into the car.

Yeah know what you mean Jack, and to be honest it would not be that hard or at least after installing these it's easy to see how someone could come up with a clip set up that would hold when used with these super strong double sided tapes that have came out.

Those looks good....
Did the same thing with mine, removed the altec and put L5's on (rear) from JW, world of difference..

I have them on my black 00. They look like they were supposed to be there. Body accessories should flow with the lines of the car and not go at a cross angle or against the natural curves. These do that easily.

I have a set of rear L5 splash guards on my navy blue coupe. I had them painted the body color and they look great (no chip yet). I'm thinking of putting the front L5 splash guards now.
