Just wondered what everyone thinks of them? I think they spoil the lines of the car and make it look tacky....but thats just my opinion.

ZIPPY

Agree that they look Tacky with a capital 'T'.They come a close 2nd to carbon bonnets and just ahead of underbody neon lights.

Small discreet ones are fine but not STI or Rally replica flaps as they look very wide boy, still if you have Clitoris Blue and Gold wheels you probably would feel lost without them.

Manners

Have to disagree with you both i think they look and are an absolute necessity if you want the paint to stay on the doors!

sti-04!!

I dont think there was any need for that

SUBTYPER

Look the dogs danglies mate. really good and protect the paintwork fantastically. Everbody to their own but will be nice to see your bodywork after 100,000 miles without them. Bet your do0rs will be peppered and for the comment clitoris blue. hahahaha. Would rather have a clitoris stimulating colour than a colour that attracts dicks.

sti-04!!

i agree

depends on wot style they are

peachy wrx

mud flaps are as cool as fanny flaps gotta get some when i got a spare £145

I agree that the current colours are limited but black is not that practical, why should you have to pay more for white? and silver is just silver. So if buying a new STi and not a classic, what colour is there apart from WR Blue?

Perhaps a poll of MY04 STi owners is needed?

You have guessed it - WR Blue for me.

Mud flaps are the dog's bollox

no **** flaps, 80,000 miles and not a single stone chip on the doors, are we talking about just normal driving here or more gravel express driving style either way i would like a set but think they would look ****e on a silver wagon but yes i agree they look the dogs on a clitoris blue saloon

they're an absolute necessity on new age models,and they don't do the cars appearance any harm either imho

Here's my clitoral blue/gold example

As for protecting the paint... then the side of my car was getting well pitted before the flapps... heck out the side on pic 1 ... this was after 40 miles in the snow and salt... nuff said!

Scoobynet has spoken just need some to go with my carbon bonnet now

Splash guards are nice,but mud flaps dont do the car any justice.

davedipster

Totally agree, mudflaps look naff on any car.
Stone deflectors like the prodrive ones protect the doors and do a fine job without spoiling the cars looks.

Or Armourfend, then you see nothing.

Mudflaps look cool on a classic too, anyway the voting at the top says approx 80% are in favour..........

When I first bought my black WRX, I didn't like the red flaps that were on it. I thought, as soon as the winter ends they're coming off. Well two and a half years and 65K miles later, they finally came off. I was sorry to see them go, but I had to get rid off them because the new 18" wheels I just bought were rubbing against them. The car gets much dirtier now so I voted cool only because of the protection they offer.

Naff- two and a half years ago, I would have said yes
cool- not really, but I did kinda grow to like them.

You can't beat a bit of flappage

Mudflaps are cool. they make the car look lower and more like a rally car.
they may at first that a bit of getting used to but they are worth the expence as they stop the stone chips and spme of the tar getting onto the bodywork etc...
