Factory bodykit and mud guards
Have any of you guys put a factory bodykit with mud guards on ? How about lowered with mud guards on ? I have a feeling it is going look tacky if the side pieces can even fit on with the mud guards on.

When I lower my car, I'm probably going to take my mudgards off. I'm pretty sure that they would scrape, but even if they don't, it would probably look better that way.
At stock height, I think the car looks better with mudgards on, however.

ehh, take em off, they look corny and take away from the sportiness of the car. When i see a TL driven by a young person it usualy has no mud gaurds on. But when i see older people driving it i ususaly see the mud gaurds on. Personally it takes away from the cars looks overall. And with a kit it would look just bad. I dont think they would fit anyway, because the mud gaurds are shaped to the body and go down to where the skirts meet the fenders.

Huh-Huh...You're Old
Dude,
LOL! Yeah...the "old" people win this round, bubba.
I dig my mud-guards! Let the "young" people clean the crap off the underside of their cars because they're too "cool" to have mud-guards! :p

Unless you have a underbody kit, you should have mud guards. Save you a bunch of trouble if you happen to drive on newly tar-paved road.
Cleaning those off is a *****.
Painting the factory mud guard cost quite a bit (to do it right). If you don't want it to peel, you have to go thorugh the sand-prime-paint process. And do it again if it scarches the ground and cracks the paint.
I think if you look closely at some painted Toyota mud guards, at the tip of it, there is some softer black plastic edges to take some beating.
