Only stone chips & a bit blasting from the grit on the road that is flung up by the tyres.

As above, so if you do bugger all driving on country roads then you should be fine.

Yes, the car will look higher for some reason, I took them off the VR and the car looked high, I put them back on because I do country driving, the the VR/VS mudflaps (not mounded) do a pretty good job as they are very big.

I dont mind the shiny logo on my rear mudflaps (VS version).

I recommend putting the screws back in after you take the mudflap off... you don't know what trim might fall off.
