Default Splash Guards (not mudflaps)

Can someone post a pic of a Mustang with mudflaps... or show a comparison between the two. I think splashguards would be a good investment but haven't decided yet.

yes, yes he is

The shelby GT500 has "splash guards", which are like mudflaps, but smaller and not made of rubber

also, from your dealer they cost $12

I've installed them on mine

Before:



After


ofcourse, I have the CS bumper, which is the same shape as the Shelby GT500 bumper, so they fit perfectly on mine

a few people have put them on regular GT's

You're looking at the wrong ones

The part I'm showing you there is a GT500 part, and does not fit a GT perfectly
You're probably looking at GT mudflaps

I believe Orion has modified his GT500 splash guards to fit his standard GT

I just went down to my dealer, told them I wanted GT500 splash guards, NOT the GT mudflaps

Paid them $12 for the set

I personally think mudflaps wont look right on a Mustang. They should stay on big rigs. Its your car though and I can respect whatever you want to put on it, afterall, it is your car. Hey maybe you will get some of the haters drawn to your thread and they will call you a poser big rig, or even OPTIMUS PRIME.
