I bought my '02 Type S about 2 weeks ago. It has the OEM spoiler. I can't decide if the guards will make the car look better or worse. I guess it depends on what angle you look at the car from. Any thoughts?

 

i have them and like them, of course when i put the factory groundeffects on i have to remove them. and you do have to know that they will over time cut the paint

 

Yeah, I think I'll probably go for them for functionality (is that a word?) more than anything. My car is silver, so I always have to wipe down the lower area. I think the guards prevent a lot of that s**t from getting on the paint.

 

yea they actually do.

and yes thats a word

 

Last warning, if you ever plan to get the OEM body kit or ever want to remove the Splash Guards in the future, do not put them on. The rear will be fine (since the bumper is plastic) but the front will cut into the paint.

 

Cutting into paint warnings aside; they are functional and will help keep road crud off the car.

 

Took mine three months to take my paint completely off.

 

took mine like amonth and ahalf

 

I suggest you keep them off. Spring is almost here with the warm temp. YAY!
