What tools are needed to install mud flaps?

Installing mud flaps requires a Phillips screwdriver and self-tapping screws. For hard-to-twist areas, you can first use regular self-tapping screws (the included Phillips self-tapping screws have blunter tips) to create pilot holes. The introduction and functions of automobile mud flaps are as follows: Introduction to mud flaps: Mud flaps are plate-like structures installed behind the wheel frames, usually made of high-quality rubber or sometimes engineering plastics. They are typically metal, leather, plastic, or rubber shields mounted behind the wheels of bicycles or motor vehicles. Functions of mud flaps: As the name suggests, automobile mud flaps serve to block mud. They are installed behind the four tires of a vehicle. The front two are fixed to the left and right lower sills, while the rear two are fixed to the rear bumper. After installation, the mud flaps protrude about 5cm from the vehicle body. This 5cm extension plays a crucial role by effectively preventing flying stones and gravel from damaging the vehicle's paint surface.
