Default Anyone installed these?



I actually didn't know what the heck they were, they were in the trunk with the license plate holder, then realized tonight that they must be some kind of "splash guard" or something for the front.
Is that right?

The dealer was supposed to install that for you before you took delivery. Oops...

Javier, exactly what are they, their function, looks like they would reduce ground clearance, should I put them on, or modify them first, or what?
They didn't install the front license plate holder either, thank god!

They're there to take the hit when you go too far up in a parking spot so you don't scratch up your paint! No need to modify them...and I'm sure the ground clearance difference is less than 1/4 an inch! Go ahead and get your dealer to put them on for you...you'll hit yourself if you hit a curb ahead of you when you're parking
