Anyone else hate their splash guards ?
 
I have a pearl white 370... And ive owned it for about 2 months now and I cant seem to get myself to like the splash guards that came with my car...

I just dont think they go with the lines of the car, esp the one by the front wheel and imo the rear ones almost just looks out of place to me as well... I see almost 99% of the cars on here have them. During my next car wash i am going to remove them and see how I like it without them... Anyone else feel the same way ?

And if anyone has a Pearl white with sport wheels without them and can post a pic I would appreciate it.. Im just guessing it is gonna look cleaner and maybe put more of the attention to the lines of the car instead of breaking it up with the splash guards installed...

Hate them as well. When trying to locate my car it was a pain because I didn't want splash guards and every Z had them. The salesman couldn't understand why I didn't want them. He tried talking into just getting one with them and then removing them for free. Of course they still wanted me to pay the cost of having splash guards on the car. Luckily the finally located the car I was looking for. But yeah, don't like the splash guards at all.

WOW.. I love my splash guards on the Z and I refuse to drive a Z without it! (I added them to my 350Z as well). I think they look great. With them on, I think the side profile by the wheel looks more complete (IMHO).

Do you see what I am trying to say? If there weren't for those splash guards, the wheel wall wouldn't look complete (at least in the rear)

But again this is my opinion. I completely understand if you don't like them :(.

I personally like the look of the 370 better with them. I think the front looks 4x better especially. Just an opinion of course, but I prefer them to the Z's without them.

Love em.

I like the design of them on my pearl white 370z, however, mine are not exactly color matched and it annoys the mess outta me!! The color is ever so slightly off. I am considering a vinyl overlay on them .. maybe black em out or something ...

chuckd05 12-03-2009 07:06 PM

after seeing them off ive decided I like them more than I thought... The rear looks better with them, but im still un sure of the front. Thanks for the opinions though.

Also if I do take them off atleast I know some one some where will prob take them off my hands ...

Here is a picture of mine on my car , taken with a crumby iphone camera tho...
