Default Aftermarket mud flaps.

Flame suit activated.

Has anyone fitted and generic aftermarket black mudflaps to the front of the Z?

I hate the fact that the front wheels splash water and debris down the side of the car. I have a pair of Rokblocks(sp?) rear black rigid plastic flaps that are unused from my previous car. Looks like it may fit the Z, most the existing holes on car line up with the mudflap bar one.

Have you seen how much crap gets flung down the sides of the Z? And this is even with stock mudguards and no spacers installed.

The whole side upto the door handle gets pelted with dirty water. I hit a small puddle earlier and by looking at the cars passanger side you'd think I did indeed travel down to an Amazonian ghetto / back street .

I have a feeling that the airflow around the car is going to push water onto the sides no matter what you do. But flaps should help some. If the flaps will fit without drilling holes in the car, I'd give it a try. Keep an eye on ground clearance.
