Deal with it
Of what? Those are the originals. I'm just showing that my originals are non-Si. I haven't installed anything yet, silly.

My bad. I thought post 19 was the newly installed stuff. I was on my phone viewing the pics.

Deal with it
Well, the new mud guards don't fit at all on the Si Sedan.
Two reasons: First, the shape of the Si bumper differs from the non-Si and overseas bumpers. As you can see in the below picture, the bottom corners are angled different and the guards don't sit flush.
Second, the Si has a fender piece that must be removed in order to fit the new guards, but removing the fender piece leaves you with nowhere to attach two of the screws.
So that was a bust. There will be no DIY for these unfortunately. I'm just going to resell them here on the forum.

Do you need a special paint for the material of the mudguards, versus what is used on metal?

Got paint from there to paint my splash guards on my old 8thgen Si. Paint help up pretty good for the 6 years I had them.
You would need a different type of primer to stick to plastic.

I've thought long and hard to get these or "side spoiler" To bad there is no way to incorporate both. But the paint match looks great!
