Splash guard install: DIY?

I'm all thumbs. Who's done this, and what does it require?

TIA.

Thread jack - sorry!!

I ordered both pairs. Dealership called to say the front came painted but not the backs - wanted $100 to paint? BS!

I cancelled the rears - never heard of a part not coming factory painted?

Does this sound right to you guys?

Thats a bunch of crap. Everyone I know that did these themselves for the G35 and now the G37, you order the color you need and they come painted, all of them.

As for the install, you need 10mm (I think) socket, screw driver, drill. Turn the front wheels to put them on and remove the rear wheels. Should also already have some double side tape to secure them.

Thanks Kidcane, as I thought.

First they said the fronts are in stock but the back was on back-oreder and would not ship from Japan till April 6th. Two days later, they call me to say they've arrived (2 weeks early, right!) and the backs need to be painted.

I truly think they were trying to paint over another colour... turds.
