Sporty design with rear flics! What is that, actually?

Sporty cars usually have various Attachments, which should serve the sportiness and this also includes so-called Heck flics. But what exactly are heck flics? Heck flics are small add-on parts that are attached to the side of the apron at the rear. These are usually made of plastic, but often also made of carbon. Some automobile manufacturers install the flics ex works, but they can also be installed retrofit. In principle, you can attach the Heck-Flics to all cars, but it doesn't suit everyone. The rear flics are usually on the bumper glued or in some cases – depending on size - also bolted. Heck flics for retrofitting are almost always glued so as not to damage the apron.

Heck flics

Heck flics are small and light and if they're only glued, you can lose them if they're not glued well enough or if they're just too much at high speeds Air pressure is exercised on it. If you want to mount Heck-Flics, you have to consider certain things. On some vehicles you can put them in the bumper clip in. This is often possible with vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, whose AMG series often have factory rear flics. These can be unclipped and replaced with ones from the accessories. In the case of the glued variants, the glued area on the bumper must first be cleaned well with alcohol to ensure a strong hold. With a bolted variant, you usually drill a hole or two in the bumper and then attach the flicks according to instructions. If rear flicks are not installed ex works, it may be that the components have to be approved by an expert, since the dimensions of the vehicle often change.

Info: Will the heck flics with a ABE delivered, then acceptance by the expert is not required. Incidentally, the sporty look is essential for the installation for most people. For many, they make the vehicle look nicer. The variants for retrofitting are usually held by one double sided tape. Another advantage is the rule slightly improved Aerodynamics created by the installation. The air flows are optimized depending on the vehicle, even if it is only minimal and certainly negligible, especially for a road vehicle. In our opinion do Heck flics but only if they are installed in combination with an air opening in the rear apron.
