Default Installing Apsis Splash Guards

Not the most mechanical guy. Take pity on me.

I've taken off the factory guards and not sure how to put the Apsis guards on.
1) Do they go over the factory guards?
2) I'm not totally confident what the upper self tapping screw is going into?

Bless you for helping me.

DO NOT remove the factory flap. You will mount the self tapping screw direct to the flap and let the flap hold the splash guard.

Once you remove the factory flap then nothing to hold the upper screw.

I have a pair on my C6Z06 and they were a breeze to install. Follow the instructions and add an extra screw below the one they recommend.They prevent "road rash" and look great.
