No hole drilling on my new baby --- I used the 3M double stick tape. Just enough surface area down the fender lips to get good cohesion. Daily driving on the freeways in SoCal have not shaken them loose --- haven't been through a car wash, though. The flaps I bought were the inexpensive ones from Pep Boys -- smaller ones for the front ($7.99) and larger ones for the back ($11.99). So for a total of $20.00 (plus tax), I have protection that really doesn't look too badd --- looks pretty good, considering. Photos attached, if I attached them properly.

nice job.

I agree, i hate car wash........my mustang's front mud flaps was too low and it comes off almost every time it go through a car wash.
