Well after much searching and deliberation I pulled the trigger on the OEM Ford Molded Splash Guards.
To someone with minimal mechanical aptitude and or experience they can be overwhelming, especially with the "piss poor" directions given.
Let me assure y'all, the hardest parts of installing these are getting over the fear of drilling into a brand new vehicle and making sure that the Splash Guards are tight against the body (not bodybuilder tight just held in position tight), a third hand, Friend/Significant Other, can be helpful but not entirely necessary.
Effort to do the actual drilling is almost nothing so don't go all Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on that drill.
The clips are the hardest part of the install, finesse and "semi The Rock strength" is necessary here, I used the flat side if a CLOSED pocket knife as a thumb-saver.
Whole install took 30 minutes at "Old Guy" pace so you Young Bucks can do it as fast or faster, just keep your testosterone in check...
