Splash Shields questions

Tried a search and came up empty. I'm considering the Honda splash shields for my '11 Sport. I'm mainly interested in them to keep the road crap from flinging up on my car.

-Does anyone know if they require drilling?

-Did they make a big difference as far as road crap on their paint?

-Does anyone have a pic of their car with the guards that you could post up?

Thx!

look under splash guard or mud flaps. I just installed the rear ones on my 2010 sport.
I am no mechanic- & if I can install them, anyone can.

Thx Susan, tried those searches and nothing turned up, leading me to wonder if you and I are the only ones that would buy the flaps.

Anyway, my mechanical ability is pretty good, I don't like to install anything that requires drilling holes in a new car.

If the flaps use existing holes and possibly hardware, then I'm sold.

Susan, are they doing their job pretty well???

THX

Grant- I found the thread I looked at when I decided to buy mine. I bought the rear guards separately from Bernardi parts. ~ $35

Yea you can only use the rears on the Sport model. I installed some on mine and took all of 10 minutes. Really adds to the car, looks great!
