Do these cars ALWAYS get so dirty?

So ever since i bought this car, i have had this problem, and i want to know if anyone else has this problem. whenever ANY tire on the car touches water, or if there is anything small and loose on the road, it will get kicked up and sprayed on the side.

For example. if there is a small puddle on the road, and if my car just got out of the car wash, the water will spray along the side and cover half the door... doesnt seem like a big deal, but when i get out of the car, it looks like someone sprayed mud along the side.

one time i evidently ran through some sort of tar shit, and it dried to my car while driving it was such a pain getting it off my doors and rear bumper

This seems to be the only car i have ever driven that cannot stay clean. i was thinking of buying some new splash guards, but idk if they are gonna be any wider than the ones on the car now. does anyone else have this problem/experience the same thing/or know where i can get wider splash guards for cheap? Any help would be appreciated, it just pisses me off that i cannot keep such a nice car clean for more than 2 days

what color is your car?
it could also be the pattern of your tires that kick the water up. but its pretty normal for every car. i recommend a good wax job for it to stay clean longer.

Its dark green. i tried waxing, but that doesnt seem to work either. if nothing gets sprayed up on the sides, then it will collect loads of dust. Maybe a different kind of wax would help?
