Stupid mod, because you’re increasing parasite drag

darren ashby says:

Your all missing something here .the flaps come as a kit and are flexible,I reckon you have been had with fake ones !
The rear comes with metal
Brackets that hold them properly ,don’t know what you have here but these are not rally Armour!

Sean says:

Do you get wind noise from these? How are they holding up now?

mark munro says:

How is this holding up?

Diego Perdomo says:

Hey Gato. You mentioned something about cuts at the end of the video. Did you mean the holes for the screws or cut on the inner part of the flaps

David Ong says:

Great vid! Are those 3M mounting tapes removable? Say i miss align the tape or i want to remove to put a fresh one? Will this damage the tape? Not sure how strong 3M tape is… Any feedback would be appreciated!

DarkIceHD says:

Hey man, I own a Civic hatch sport. This video worked perfectly for me. Slight differences with placement because of Type R body kit but overall it saves my paintjob. Thanks again for the video

game hopper says:

Only 3 screws on the front?

Jose Hernandez says:

I just skipped to finished product, could bare the agony of the struggle with universal flaps

Kevin Campos says:

How is that double sided tape holding up? Have you had any problems with it coming off or anything like that?

Mike Aguilar says:

The tape still holding up?

Mike Aguilar says:

How high off the ground is it? And how far out from the car. Ive had these sitting at home waiting fpr me to do something with

Danny Thach says:

The double sided tape you use is it the one that holds up to 30 lbs?

Christopher Lat says:

About to order a set. How's the mud flaps still holding up with the 3M?

unBOIlievable Tran says:

How are the rear ones holding up? I'm planning on doing the same installation.

louisolivierfortin says:

For those who don’t like the look: you really DON’T need to make them stick out that much. Just 1/2 inch out and 1 inch under is well enough to protect the paint and it basically looks stock.

Arnold Gould says:

I plan to drive in the winter in New England cold and snowy. Do you think that the PVC mudflaps and the tape install is good enough to endure those conditions, or might it be better (more expensive) to buy the Rally armor UR series Universal Mudflaps that can withstand the cold. better. Or do you plan to put these on waiting for the Honda OEM flaps?

Bob L. says:

great vid the electric impact wrench brings me back to my auto days! i think you and vladrob are inspiring ne to work on my own car again

Ethan says:

Doesn't the front disrupt the air flow as it looks like it block the front vents?

Roger Sears says:

Mud flaps? The Type R is overdone from the factory and you want to add more "stuff" to the exterior?
