I guess I mis-spoke when I said flat head bolts. See, the wing protectors have pre-drilled holes in them, but no hardware comes with them to attach them to the wing. (they are $hitpart brand). So HOW you attach them is entirely up to you, and how you want to proceed!
If I had the tools, I would personally have gone with rivnuts. Getting your hand under the wing to thread the nuts was a challenge in a few of the areas.
Bad gas mileage gets you to some of the greatest places on earth.
Revnuts/ nutserts would be the way to go. In fact every rover owner should have the kit and tool to pop threads in. I've been meaning to post a thread of how easy and all the uses for nutserts on a Rover.

Mine are held on with rivnuts and a substantial amount of never seize on the screws. I also ran a foam gasket around the edge so crap wouldn't work it's way between the wing protector and the wing. Mine is very easy to remove in the event you need remove the wing to do other repairs.

No I have a unique way that my mudguards are sealed at the top so I need to drill out 3 rivets to remove my wing. Next time I see you I'll show you.
