[MENTION=13256]aggieStang[/MENTION] we have a 3d printer (specificallly an Ultimaker 2) at my office. I am not proficent at 3d programs at all, I end up using sketchup for most of my experiments. But would love to help out cuz i believe we as stang drivers are going to have to come up something more stylish than that plastic board that everyone else sells.

Detailed my car this weekend and i have a shit ton of pin hole size chips on my door :eyebulge:, lower front area, just pasted the fender and i'm only lowered on stock PP tires/wheels. Need something soon. And would love to contribute any possible. Would be cool to do a mounting solution similar to the rear gt350s if that was even possible

[MENTION=13256]aggieStang[/MENTION] here are the two posts i found where [MENTION=8761]Jmeo[/MENTION] installed his. they go into the fender. Not sure if the front on ours has anything behind the liner to mount to for a oem fit. As the gt350 doesn't have any front splashes.

[MENTION=12228]RubyRed15[/MENTION] im abit annoyed at this, i've only had it since Oct and barely have lil more that 2200 miles on it, less than 50% highway daily for that matter only like 5 miles of it.

I wish i new this issue ahead would have spent money to clear bra the whole car. Next year i'll have a polka dotted car.

Yeah, I am probably going to wrap the sides of mine,too. I've already repaired thousands of chips w/Dr. ColorChip, and I'm going to have to do a 2nd round before I can wrap. 5k mi. :headbonk:

Are you running spacers or a more aggressive wheel setup?

Factory EB/PP setup.
Dang that's disheartening, I've only got a few hundred miles on mine and haven't discovered any chips yet. Hopefully some molded guards come to the market soon.

They look similar but the U channels look different and longer. I personally don't like the idea of the U channels because of removing to clean and scratching the paint. Cuz it will no matter how careful you are.

I'm not a fan of the U channels either but they seem the best option to me for now. Just a thought: how about some clear vinyl wrap applied under the areas where the splash guards actually attach to the paint?

That's not a bad idea.

And to think i was only going to get chips if i got spacers, reason why i held off getting those.

These look just like the AM ones, but cost less (they do add $15 for shipping tho :mad:).

Anyone that has the AM ones, can you confirm if the "clips" on these look the same ?
Yes I do, and these look exactly the same Mike.
