Splash guards are not only functional but they add a bit of subtle styling to a vehicle. And today I’m going to have you follow along with me as I install a set of front and rear splash guards to my 2015 Mercedes C300. And I’m going to do the installation without removing the wheels and no drilling.

When you’re ordering your splash guards be sure to check to see if the product fits your vehicle. Even the different trim levels of the same vehicle will have slightly different body contours. So be sure to check the item before you place your order. I'm using imitation products so they’re not genuine Mercedes parts and they’re mounted to the fender of the car. Even though this is a not an official part it fits the contours in the quarter panel.

The kit also comes with screws and fasteners but I ended up not using them. If you have trim removal tools they’ll definitely come in handy. Before installing I’m adding an additional step of sticking on a piece of clear vinyl behind the wheel. I’m doing this to protect the paint from micro-scratches when the splash guard rubs against the finish. I’ve seen this technique used by car manufacturers to keep parts of the car body from getting rock chips or scratches. To measure the curve of the wheel, I used a piece of tin foil to wrap around the curve to get the shape I needed to cut. I ended up buying a 15 foot roll of clear vinyl but didn’t need to use very much of it. And when the air bubbles are worked out you’ll barely notice that the vinyl is there. Just remember to remove the top protective plastic when you’re done and repeat on all four fenders.

Once the splash guard installation is finished it really adds a finishing touch to the vehicle! They’re a really subtle styling feature and helps keep some debris from hitting the paint on the car. On the front you have full range of steering without the tire rubbing the splash guard. As you could see these splash guards were really easy to install and they only cost my $50. If you were to buy the official Mercedes brand parts, they’d cost about $200 bucks. The nice part was that I didn’t have to drill, jack up the car or remove the wheel to install these splash guards. This is easily a 1 hour job if you don’t do the clear vinyl like I did.
