I did notice that I had to take the metal nut pieces off the stock rears and put them on the new ones.

Dumb question but is it necessary to remove the wheels for install?

The splash guards will provide some added protection while you are waiting for the paint protection install. I replaced mine after XPEl only because I didn't have them before. Easy install that does not require tire removal, but as mentioned in an earlier post, does require that you reuse the captured nut from the rears.

Installed them on my Z yesterday
I think thy could be a bit larger, they only extend about 1/2 or 5/8 past the stock parts

Mine arriving this week. Lower rear vents have already been chewed up from rocks at 552 miles! As I approached a stop sign today at about 15 miles an hour, I heard dirt hitting the bottom and sides of the car. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw little rocks flying up. Splash guards are a must! Gonna have to order new vent inserts.

Not for anything. Why wouldnt you just use a clear film paint protector in the area.

They are great and easy to install. I do think they should have put them on the Z standard. And they do fit with all 3 stages. JD
NOTE: part#s thanks to C7_Z06

New here, not sure about pm....... can you pm me with info? My A8 is being built next week. Don't want chips!
Thanks.
