Mud Flaps or Not?

I've been suprised at the amount of mud that sprays up the side and coats the steps. Not seen many fitted with flaps so not sure whether to or not?

I personally think that some cars look wrong with them fitted but not sure on the RRS.

Opinions please Thumbs Up

Sometimes it is not enough to do our best;
sometimes we must do what is required.

When i had mine i thought i did not need flaps, how wrong was i.
as said keeps the steps clean and saves putting all that dirt on the carpets

Mud flaps on any car look very 1980's IMO

Like wiper deflectors and extendy mirrors for towing caravans

Where do you stop - 'hood' jackets next Confused
