Yep a couple screws. The rears should be out to the sides more, I may order another set and redo them, but for now this is fine.

Beauty is subjective... Personally I like them, I didn't ask for opinions on looks, I asked for details on mounting them, but "thanks?!" for your words of wisdom Dave.

I run them on my 2013 Clubman.

I used plastic pop rivets (kit form Harbor freight) and some stainless bolts/nuts.

Made cardboard templates, marked to the body first for fitment. Had them on for a year now. They REALLY do a great job of keeping crap off the car, and keep the rear cleaner.

*not ugly

I run a set front and rear.

Drilled into "fabric" wheel liners. No sheetmetal drilling, no glue, no BS. The fronts were tight to set up since the wheel well insert is right up against the wheel housing, so be careful.

These universal RA flaps can be installed on any car if you have stainless steel hardware and know how to use a drill. You don't need to make templates, or pay someone... Just aim and drill
