i would definitely recommend splash guards and definitely paint them, they look so much better that way

mecca, i don't want to **** on you but:

Isn't the purpose of splash/mud guards to keep rocks and **** from flying up and scratching your paint? So if you paint them (even though they look good) the paint will get scratched off?

I guess what i'm trying to say is: Isn't it a total and complete waste of money to have them painted?

Umm hello, the paint is on the back side. Only the front which faces the wheel is subject to rocks and ****.

Common sense man.

I agree, I would like to know if anybody else bought them from this website "http://www.jcwhitney.com/product.jh...requestid=87264 " and they are satisfied. Thanks again.

I got my spalsh guards by going to the classified(WTB/FS) forum and found a set already painted. I suggest you go there first, there are a lot of Org members that take their splash guards off when they put kits on their car. I'm sure some of them will want to sell them to you. So before you go to JC whittney and order some ill-fitting splash gaurds, check here first.
