Those of you who installed these...

Did you use 3m tape as well? I noticed it wasn't included in the kit..

If so... which did you use?

I used some 1 inch 3M "extreme mounting" tape - basically what I had available.

It was definitely necessary. I mounted them with just the pins first and they'd occasionally flap. Added some tape and they've been silent ever since.

I'll send you a pm. Looking for a set of mud flaps ASAP, especially since my spacers have already been shipped out. I'd like to be able to install both parts at the same time.

Excellent! I'm in on the rear reflector deletes and the splash guards. Just please respond to the couple of questions in the pm and I'll PayPal you. I appreciate the swift response, btw...

Is the 3M tape really not included? The UK site showed everything included, then again, I will not be ordering this from the UK

3M is optional and not included. All screws, spacers and push pins are included.

I know its been a while since you asked, but I believe the fender changes a bit between M2 and M240, I believe some people have picked up a set and drilled another hole to make them fit, but I haven't done myself.

FYI, I had them on the car for 2 years (including 2 winters) and they where needing replacement when I sold the car. Nothing broke but they where discolored and looked like crap. Would still recomend them as fitment was perfect.
