I would like to purchase a chrome exaust tip, but i was wonering if it comes with a mounting braket or if it has to be welded or screwed into the tailpipe? I would like to save 30 bucks and put it on myself! The same is true with the mudflaps. Do they just snap in or should they be drilled and mounted on the vibe?

The factory exhaust tip has a really nice stainless steel exhaust clamp and only requires slipping it over the pipe and tightening the nut.I don't know anything about the mudflap connection.Dave

I think there are a couple of holes to be drilled for the mudflaps, but it should not be beyond your ability if you know how to operate an electric drill.

Thanx for your replys! Someone said that there were just plastic clips?

No, they are drilled in, mine are. I wouldnt trust plastic clips to hold onto them as I would be afraid of it ripping off somewhere down the road.

on the rear mudflaps, put a depth stop on your drill bit, or you will accidentally drill right through the bottom trim. I wish I didn't know this first hand.
