Best way to install rear mud flaps?
I bought Ford oem mustang rear mud flaps. Is it better to use screws to mount them or should I use body molding adhesive tape to avoid drilling holes? I’d like some input on this….thanks! Roy

Far As Oem Here are the Two Choices Listed on Ebay! The F6ZZ is Still Avaialble the DR3Z are Obsolete and Items Listed are NOS I'm Pretty Sure For Others Interested.
Factory & Accessory Flaps Listed.
Factory Screws for DR3Z Flaps Should Be For Threaded Holes In the Wheel Lip. You Could Use Possibly For Accessory Flaps, Drill Flap Not Car. If They Can Line Up To Factory Inserts! {Should Be Existing Screws in Wheel Lip!}
If you Got the OEM Style DR3Z Prefix, They Should Go on With Screws and No Drilling. If you Got the Old F6ZZ {UNIVERSAL ACCESSORY STYLE} Flaps, I Say Old Cause it's a 1996 Part Number! They Been Around Awhile.
Not a Fan of Tape For Mudflaps!
That's My Opinion With Info Provided.
Unless You Got Some Other Ford Flap I am Not aware of??? Pics or Part Numbers are Always Helpful!

PIC SHOWS OEM FLAP WHERE HOLES WOULD NEED TO BE DRILLED IN ACCESSORY FLAP TO USE EXISTING SCREWS. MAY OR MAY NOT WORK. WILL HAVE TO MOCK UP!
