are the mud flaps the same as the splash guards we have on our 3gs? i know for us, we couldn't even fit the kit on with the guards - thus we had to take em' off and throw em'. it looks way better anyways. throw em' out FTW!

Search for threads started By ME. Im not sure if the thread was mainly about mudflaps, but I actually took before and after pics and asked the same question as you. I Put mine back on because they were never off the car so the paint was fucked up a bit.

The mudflaps don't fit with the lip kit. They have to be off.

Take them off before they scratch your paint.
