Default ALTEC Splash Guards

Has anybody ever installed these splash guards? If so, how easy was it, how does it look, and do you have to drill any extra holes? For that matter, for you guys who don't use splash guards, any damage to your car? Thanks in advance.

Default makita needed

The Altec guards require 3 holes. The look like a mod accessory. There are a lot of threads on this, If you do a search, you should find images of them. I recall a silver car with them several months ago. I used the Pipedream guards because they required no alteration and were inconspicuous. Personal taste.

I did a search for the splash gaurds and only found 3 threads on the pipedreams one, but was wondering if anybody had experience with the ALTECH ones. Thanks for the reply.

I've had them since July. Yes, you have to drill holes. I personally like them a lot.

Do a search in C6 for Altec - there's a few threads with pictures of them installed.
