I've got metal brackets behind them, screwed to the body underneath-- basically where running boards would be screwed on. I had to drill some holes in the bumper, but even those are pretty minimal and you wouldn't notice them if I took the airdam off.
Actually got these painted a few days ago, but have been busy with other stuff and only just now have gotten around to posting pics. They look SO much better in black than in vinyl siding yellow.
Rear wheel skirts are also in the plan, though I'm not sure what I'll end up making them out of, maybe coroplast, maybe something else I can find at the salvage yard.
In other news, as I've been driving it here and there, and at low speeds, I've noticed a low moan from the back drivetrain somewhere. After putting it up on jackstands and crawling around with a stethoscope, it seems to be coming from the pinion bearing in my differential. Yay. Anyone know what happens if I don't fix it and just live with the noise?
