Not likely - but now they'll have clean sand and rocks. 
BTW, CR - Now that I've been driving with a 22-mm rear sway bar for 10 days, I recommend that you don't eat, sleep or go to work again until you get one installed. The improvements in turn-in, handling and body roll are nothing less than incredible.
Also, the addition of the front undertray and rear diffuser is just cool - plus it reduces road noise a little. However, I don't believe the report from the guy who said it's worth 1.3 mpg on the highway.
You've seen enough rear-end photos of JCW hardtops with the rear diffuser, so here's a shot of my smooth bottom.

Damnnnnnnnnn.... that's the best looking bottom I've seen in so long, I don't even remember the name attached to that great bottom. 
You and Greg are going to convince me to move that 22 mm rear sway bar to the top of my mod list.
I already take the exit and entrance ramps at 20 mph over the posted limits. I see 10 more mph's in my future. Of course, more than half the time, the slow pokes take the fun out of my life.

Not familiar with this company but their price blows away every other website price I could find. And free shipping too.

Given I'm not buying something that costs thousands of dollars, I won't have a problem buying from them.

OK cool. I just wanted to let you know. I recently spent 12 hours getting new tires mounted because I just don't want (trust) anyone to touch my car. Took the wheels off and washed them in the bath tub (too cold outside). Went to shop, waited for call and remounted wheels etc.

Haha.... mental image of bathing the wheels in the tub. I just swapped out my summers/17s for my winters/16s and washed up the 17s really good when they came off. Trying to imagine washing them in one of my tubs, and even in the oversized one, wouldn't trust myself not to make a mess that would be a bear to clean up. Kudos to you ! I was lucky to have a nice day to do it outside.
