Terry,
They are plastic liners which seal at the inner wheel arches and inside the
lip of each wing. It's a little difficult to get a good seal to the wings as
the damned things were rolled up when shipped, you have to see it to
understand, but it'll be better than exposed metal (painted). If you use the
supplied sheet metal screws care needs to be taken at the rear arches, due to
the upholstery. Don't want to drill to deep.
I think they should help considerably in keeping road grime out.
I'll report back to the list when finished.
I'll try and get some picts on my web page.

Richard,
Are these the splash guards that are basically an ABS plastic inner fender
for front and rear or are you referring to "mud flaps". If you are
installing the inner fender please let me know how you like them and if any
drilling, etc. was needed to install them.
My car is a daily driver and I've been considering installing these to
reduce road spray exposure to the wheels wells of my car.
Thanks,
