Default Splash guard for the amuse rear bumper?

I know a lot of people like the clean look of the amuse rear bumper but personally i think a splash guard similar to the OEM splash guard might enhance the look a little, making it more 'full' looking.

Looks + function. Anyone else think it will enhance the look a lil?

Tracking wise, probably not but for a regular driver it does make a noticible difference when i am washing my car.

I dont think a lot of people that tracks will spend much on modifying the exterior when they can spend money else where for performance

enhance the look to make the kit look bad. Splash guards...no...diffuser, canards and Cf adds on maybe. There would be no point of really having it.

really, really don't want to see canards on the amuse kit. they'd just break up the flow lines for all the wrong reasons.
