So was at dealer getting wheels/tires road force balanced to solve a pesky vibration at 65mph... anyway I had bought the Mopar Rubber Splash Guards there also so they offered to install them while they had the tires off anyway. Turns out they ordered the wrong set for the front, but did go ahead and put the rear set on. But, for some reason I was thinking the spats needed to be removed? Or is that only with the molded splash guards?
Dealer left the spats on... created a bit of gap at the top. I removed one side to compare, have a few pics below. There is still a bit of gap on top, but not as much as with the spat. The Instructions don't really help here - even though these are for NON Fender Flares, the instructions are somewhat generic and appear to use a Fender Flare illustration as an example it seems .
EDIT - actually, looking at the matching front flaps, it appears they want you to leave the spat in place.

Other side, I removed the spat:
