I also bought the EVOR CF side blades. The holes are pre-drilled but come with no hardware. And honestly… I didn't even see where these would attach using factory hardware. Hadn't seen a more recent thread on how to DIY with these CF side blades. I Took your advice 370ZilverZ and bought 3/4-1" self-tapping screws w/ washer (washer also had a very thin layer of foam). I didn't use a jack/ramps/lift. My car is lowered on swift springs. Its doable… I wish I had at least some cheap ramps it would have made the install a breeze. Step 1: Removed front mud flaps and cleaned the underside Step 2: Cleaned the blades Step 3: Laid the 3M VHB tape on the blades Step 4: Attach side blades w/ 3M VHB tape to car (recommend doing a few test fits because once this tape is on… its freaking on) Step 5: Using a nail, about half the thickness of your self-tapping screws, to create a hole on the body underside. This makes starting the screws WAY easier. I used the 5 pre-drilled holes on each side blade Step 6: Using a 1/4" ratchet (or w/e you want) I drove the screws into the body, attaching side blades to the car with 3M VHB tape in between. Careful not to over tighten the screws as that could crack the CF. Step 7: ![]() ![]() |
