Im deciding if i want to take the mud flaps off my vt. just want to know, do you find that the side of the car gets dirty quicker than if they where on and any other problems that people have had with them have had with them thanks
You could trim them, but I say awf
My ride-VS commo, Just finishing the manual conversion. Working out those annoying bits!
Definitely off.
off fo sure
Starin at the world through my rearview
Go on baby scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin fast cause it's time to die
Gettin high, watchin time fly
I say off as well.
Ojn old Falcons, with mine off, hardly noticed any more rocks or dirt on side of car
Definately off if lowered, even still if it isnt, off they should come. Whats the plans on the car? Modding it? lowering it?
Pic of first Falcon with mudflaps, you can see they hardly made a difference at all.

Just take them off. Sure you may get more mud up the guards but how often are you going to go through mud.
Welcome to the internet where people have opinions that you might not like
you better hope yours are nothing like mine were when i took them off, big discolouring where each mudflap was for me now, dont know if the car was either resprayed with the mudflaps left on or the mudflaps just wrecked the paint under them but yeah, either way im up for a respray to fix it. Still looks better without them though
they stop stone chips pretty well... Pretty useless if you drive heaps in the city, so id get rid of em, but if ya like me and spend most of ya time on dirt roads.. Probably an idea to keep em on if ya not too fussed what they look like.
yeah i have the same problem as danc discolouring and scratches where they have been car looks sweet with them off exept for the marking lol but im putting a hsv gto body kit on soon so i will be getting the body kit sprayed to match guess i can do it then
Take one off and leave one on and see how different it is side to side
I left mine on for they are a genuine factory accessory; one of my quirks is collecting factory accessories and fitting them to my cars.....
