Mudflaps - Yay or Nay?

[Daddy-Blake]

Noticed alot of the cars on here havent got mudflaps. Mine came with them, and dont really understand why people take them off. There not exactly noticable on my car. But maybe they are on more heavily modded cars.
What do people think?

Also sorry for posting so many threads on here lately, Im knew to all this and you guys seem to make a lot more sense to me than google. Hopefully one day I can use my gained knowledge to help others.

moulded mini-flaps I like.

rally-style sheets of blue acrylic nailed into the wheel arch, different matter entirely

 

[Darren S]

Hell yeah!

Granted - they really should only be on cars that they were 'designed' on. Getting a set of black Ralliart flaps was the first purchase I made for the Evo when I got it.

I do like the little stubby ones too that are moulded to the arches of many cars though. Would have been nice if the RS range of Clios could have had a subtle set of mud-flaps made for them by Reno.

D.

I can't say it's ever bother me one way or another,
even the aftermarket rally ones don't look offensive to me.

Fast & Furious body kits on the other hand......

I'd vote if there was an option that said, 'meh, i'm not bothered either way'.

 

[Duffman_172]

In my opinion no, not unless you are going rallying or live on a farm lol

 

[Christopher]

Nope.

 

[markhinton]

NEEEEEIIGHH!

 

[RDH]

I think they look rubbish. Apart from saving the odd possible stone chip they are pointless to me as I regularly wash my car so its hardly ever dirty.

 

[JackJack]

Standard ones are alright anything else looks sh1t.

 

[Jimbo_M]

NO!

 

[Munson]

In your case they look alright. The 'rally' ones not so much.

 

[JoeyD]

I don't mind the moulded style ones for Clio's, so long as the car is a dark colour. Rally flaps/anything else are gash.

 

[Grant89]

On a non sport, I'd say the standard moulded ones look fine but personally don't think they'd suit the sports.

A definite no to rally flaps, unless of course it was a rally car and then it could be acceptable lol!

 

[M111XYY]

No!

 

[Jeff456]

Ummmm no.

 

[Zorr]

Am I the only one considering mud flaps as a safety feature of the car - they increase visibility in the rain for all the users of the road ?

This, unless it's actually rallied. In that case, I love them.

ACCEPTABLE.

s**t.

The more people who realise the subtle difference, the better.

As for the poll, I voted yes, because it's about the standard flaps.

 

[davo172]

NEEEEEIIGHH!

FLOL !

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

Nothing says reach-arounds welcome like a fine ass set of mudflaps!!

 

[Advikaz]

It all boils down to whether you're gay or not.
