splash guards or no splash guards

If mine did not already come with them, I would not have ordered them. That said, I like them now that I have them.

None of the poser junk
Splash guards are poser junk? I guess floormats, leather and bose stereos are poser too? There's alotta guys that would say buying the sport pkg is VERY POSER. Many believe "why buy a cheap azz sport pkg when you can have 6piston Brembo's, Volks, a OS Giken or Quaiffe lsd, KW3 suspension and an amuse or Zele bodykit??? See it really sux calling people or there tastes posers because someone that can afford the $25,000 in mod parts just mentioned would call you a poser with a sport pkg.. for a lot of guys all those parts mentioned are pre-mods before the real mods. (engine mods.)

I like the splash gaurds on mine. The only drawback can be the color match between them and the main body. On mine you notice the change of color. I'ts like a bumper repaint that is not blended with the rest of the body.

Either way, the comment should've been addressed years ago. So I did. Lol

Resurrected from the dead yet another 2 years later! Does anybody know where I can get a set on a good deal? (Didn't search for a group buy yet, but I just assumed there wouldn't be 1 haha)

To guard against spashing of water and rocks (more importantly) up onto your rear quarters and front rocker panels. That's about it.

splash guards look okay if you dont plan on using big spacers on your stock wheels at stock height. cause they can sort of look out of place from the back. (inner side of the splash guard does not line up to the inner sidewall of your rear tires).
