Default Mudflaps

The P.O put mudflaps on my car. I never really take much notice of them, and usually forget they are there. Do you guys think I should leave them on or take them off. Do they look stupid?

I say take them off. I wouldn't say they look stupid but they are not very attractive.

I wonder why the guy added these haha. Maybe to prevent water and dirt from getting on the quarter panel, and rusting it out? Who the hell knows haha.

They are good for keeping rubber off the quarter when you do burn outs.

Ya take them off. As long as your not running drag radials,which pick up everything on the road, use a good wax to minimize paint chipping.
