Okay, the rear black mud guard has 2 screws, is their any tool or way you can take them off without removing the rear wheels? I wanted to install my jdm extensions but im lazy and I dont want to remove the wheels. So im just wondering is removing the wheel mandatory to access the screw.

i think your best bet would be to remove the wheel. i tried one of those bendable screw gun extension still couldnt get it, or you can put a screw tip on a ratchet and do it that way

if u use a long enough screwdriver u can remove them without removing the wheel, or u can use a stubby and just jack the car up

Thats exactly what I used.

I still ended up taking the wheel off for something else, but that ratcheting screwdriver worked great.

You drive around all over town to find a tool when all you have to do is spend 5 minutes to remove the wheels...lmao. That's funny dude.

i didnt want to take the wheels off, i got the tool and it was just as easy. I pass lowes/home depot going to work every day so its not out the way. Plus gives me to put miles on the car =) only put about 4K in last 2 years on her

craftsman makes 1/4'' ratcheting screwdrivers they look cheap and are pretty cheap, i think just the straight one is like 7$ but I use them all the time at work theyre so good.
