Ok, I need some clarification here. Why, exactly, do you need to remove the rear spat to install this? It looks like the bracket slides in BEHIND the body panel, whereas the spat is mounted in front of it. Can't you just drill an extra hole in the bracket for the extra screw that the spat requires, then take out the screws in the spat, slide the bracket in behind everything, and screw it all together? Why do you need to remove the spat?

And is it the same situation for the front wheels?
