GREAT !!!!! thanx alot. it was really bothering me cuz i ordered them. and if i didnt like them i couldnt take them off cuz it would leave a hole in the body panel. cuz on some pics of the rear ones it showed a screw on the bottom inner part by the exhaust. and i thought it was screwed into the body panel.

you will be really really sorry if you get them. they do drill holes to put them on you know. if you do remove them you will have a very very unsighly automobile looking used and slighlty defective with holes in the panels like a piece of ****. even if you put the screws back in you're screwed. you'd better get it together maaaaaaaaaan and figure out what YOU WANT!!!!! THIS IS NOT A MODEL CAAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T DO IT!!!!!! You can always get them put on later. So my professional advice don't listen to these BOZOs that say you can take them off later. Listen up and PUT THEM ON LATER. GOT IT!!!! good

IM pretty sure that the holes are already drilled, as they are PORT installed and most nissan cars offer the guards with a screw driver as the only needed tool. Looking at my Z, I see screw holes for gurads that are plugged off with little plastic caps. Although, I must interject that I wish I has the guards, and I really want some. Are yours gonna be silverstone?
Anyway, the biggest BIGGEST thing if that this car is a little brake dust factory and that stuff is getting all over the side of my car!!!!
I also think they look awesome, but forget about the look and get them anywayz!!!

i ordered CS. but i love the silverstone so if one comes along b4 mine comes in imma grab it. so you say there are predrilled holes are they in the black area on the wheel well or is on the painted body. the the screw im wondering about is on the rear, its like the inner part of the splash gaurd. it looks like there is one screw that screws into the metal i havent really seen them in person. all im going by is pictures.
on another note i wish i bought those factory 18's on ebay i think they went for 600 and someone bought them and chromed them. if you look there going for 2300. but a hell of an upgrade.

Definitive answer for you on where the screw holes are....
Front- There are two that are screwed into holes in the whell well and one that is screwed into the bottom of the side inside of the lip that runs the length of the door.
Rear- There are two screws that go into the rim of the rear tire fender and one that goes into the bottom side of the rear bumper along the side.
The two screws that are both front and rear that are around the wheel well area can be seen up close. The one screw that is underneath the car on both front and rear cannot be seen except when you put your head underneath the car.
All screws are black but I am sure if you really must you can buy different colors to match.
It is as easy as unscrewing the three screws to take of the splash guard so I would assume it would be less time if you use a powered screwdriver.
I couldn't tell you if the holes are there if you didn't order splash guards.
I preordered a car without splash guards as I knew they would look stupid, but the car I ended up getting from a dropout preorder had them and I ended up liking them as they round out the sides better.
Don't mean to sound harsh to the guy who asked the question but mainly to the bozos out there with the bad info.

No problem. Only took three minutes to go out to the garage to take a peek at where these things are. If I had a digital camera, I would have posted pics for you too.
No problem waiting. They do look good though.
