    As Tombie pointed out... the mounting nuts are NOT behind those grommets, they are behind black stickers.

    There are 5 on the side and a further 6 underneath.

    Easy job.... easier with a mate to hold one end though

    Looks good.
    On my short list.
    ATP VS GOE vs Brads.

    Tombie, it looks like your ATP's allow one to keep the OE front mudflaps?
    Very similar to GOE.

    Cheers

    Yes... Front mudflaps would still be ok, I haven't had them fitted.. As evidenced by the chipping of the leading edge of the rear flares.

    Front mudflaps don't help with the chipping. Unfortunately I've learnt that one the hard way.

    Strange,i have OEM front mud flaps, very little chipping.

    I have done a lot of rocky high speed roads,my tyres are very badly chipped,they should actually be replaced.
    I have even had to repaint and re tectyl the rear chassis rails,under the car, and the bottom front lip of the rear bumper is also very badly chipped,but the rear flares are fine.

    The only thing i can think of is my tyres are 245 so probably a bit thinner than what you guys are running.

    Well, if you're fitting by yourself, mine are alloy, so a lot lighter

    Cheers,

    I have to reiterate Gordon's comment. To install the GOE sliders, hold in place with one hand while screwing in the bolt with the other. And there is no interference with the mud flaps.
