Anyone not like their splash guards?

I have a set on order that was 'thrown in' as part of the sale. I'm not 100% sure I want them though. I like the idea of reducing rock chips on the rocker panels, but I haven't made up my mind yet if I like how they look.

Anyone have them and not like them? Is there any reason not to get them?

My car came with them. I like it. It helps reduce splash in the rain. You probably won't notice they're there. So go ahead put them on and enjoy.

Mine came with something that appears to be pseudo splash guards...can you post a pic of yours? What I have doesn't seem to do anything compared to what I have on my old Maxima.

I like mine, I think it helps fill the rear. Without them the rear rises and the car would look higher than it really is.

They are not traditional splash guards. I like the look. They do protect the car from rock chips and other things but they are not what you see on an eighteen wheeler. I think they make the car look just a slight bit different and it is a look I like, IMO.

I think I'll take one more look at a G with them installed before I make a final decision. I am leaning towards having them installed though.

If you don't want them, I'd be willing to take them off your hands(if they're blue slate).

If it doesn't cost you anything extra, I say take it uninstalled. I would like to buy them from you, any color, doesn't matter.

I have black and I really like the splash guards. Not sure if they protect a lot, but a little sure. I like the look of them. Just my thoughts. I have a friend with a G35 and he does not like his splash guards. To each their own I guess.

I wasn't going to get the splash guards. When I went to the dealership and seen them, I thought they looked pretty good and made sure I got them.

I decided to get them installed and though I like the overall "look", the paint color doesn't match! The dealer is offering to have them painted to match, so I plan on giving that a try.
