Rear Splash Guards

Did you get the Rear Splash Guards with your TSX?


I assumed everyone did, until I started looking in the Gallery and noticed a majority of the pictures didn't have any.
I think it ruins the smooth curves of the car with the splash guards especially on the pearl white TSX.

Mine came with all four splash guards. I have the PWP and don't think it ruins the lines at all.

to each his own.

I'm still lose that there are only the rears on your car. They are sold as a set of 4.

On my Artic Blue it matches well, and plus everytime I go through puddles I'll have to worry less about washing the sides often.

I got the rear splash guards to improve handling.

Without Splash Guards
Weight Distribution MT (Front)60
Weight Distribution MT (Rear)40

With Splash Guards
Weight Distribution MT (Front)59.999
Weight Distribution MT (Rear)40.001



On the downside, curb weight goes up by 1.3 lbs. Anyone have the before/after dynos?

No, I didn't. Bonus!
It gets even better when they get chalk full of mud.

...Seriously, I think the rear muds balance the look of the car.

I agree. My dealer installs them on all their TSX's and also puts in the trunck tray. On my NHB they not only look good but help keep the car cleaner. A real plus...
