Mud Flaps
Today I did my very first Lexus job. I installed the mud flaps, fronts real easy - just had to turn the wheels out to access the push-pins and screws.
I was hesitant to do the rear flaps at first cause I needed to remove the rear wheels, but that went better than I expected.
Bolts wern't too tight coming off and the wheels went on their centerhubs quite easy, I torqued the bolts to 100 ft lb.
Sorry - I meant I torqued the WHEEL bolts

- The torque for a standard M10 bolt ranges from 15 to 49 Nm, depending on the bolt's material and grade. or 14 to 36 ft lbs
- You might have over torqued your mud flap bolts
You're right I read too fast since it said mud flaps. @Amigo good torque for wheels Tightening torque: 103 ft•lbf (140 N•m, 14.3 kgf•m) Nice install 
YMMV,
