whats to think about, get them they are a big help in keeping the backside of your wheel wells from getting all knicked up and splattered with tar....and yes, get the color matched ones....you can get them for around a hundered bucks from an ebay acura dealer and install takes a half hour....

if you never want the aspec body kit then sure...why not. but if you do, then they are a waste of money. i prefer the body kit, but it was way more $$

I like mine. They keep all sorts of road debris from being flung high speed onto the fenders of your car.

If your going to add splash guards add a strip of electrical tape under the back edge of them where they touch the fender paint. They have enough movement to marr the paint in that area.

What I did was hold them in place and trace around then with a dry erase marker then add the tape to the line I made .. you won't see it.

Then install the splash guard. This saves marring the paint.

Actually what I wish I had done was use double sided moulding tape to seal the back edge of the guard. It would have prevented movement, and stopped dirt from getting under the guard. I don't ever plan on taking mine off, but if I had it to do over again its what I'd do.
