My opinion: Get Em! why? well my opinion again, I feel they complete the look as others have said...

and the extra cost for the paint is only on the chicane yellow, what color did you request?

Default No Splashguards through Parts Department???

I called a couple of local Nissan Parts departments here in Arizona and none of them list availability for splashguards. My car came without but I want to add them. Anyone know a good source with pricing? Nissan says they'll "call me back"...not holding my breath.

The problem is that if the dealerships are not getting the parts neither will the aftermarket vendors.

the Z looks better without them and they dont look too useful anyways

I have ClearBra on the entire rocker panel. They have a piece that protects the front splashguard.

Mine has splash guards.

1) It looks better since my car is black on black which does not show
body's lines well like other light colors - splash guards give it more lines.
2) They make the rear fenders look bigger and wider.

If someone has the front ones in PG and doesn't want them, I'll give you $40 for them.

Mine already were on mine, not sure if that's because it was the chicane yellow or not but I think it looks much better with than without.
