I like my car with them more than without. Black plastic doesn't contrast much against AM, so they really catch the eye. Other colorsI agree they clash a little.

I put them on both of my 3G TL's as soon as possible after purchase. They are not screaming, "look at me" by any means and they do work.

I like the color match mudguards much better than the unpainted. They blend in nicely on my NBP.

I like 'em. Think they'll go well with the A-Spec.

Mine came with them. It looks like all TLs in my area came with them. I liked them but had to take the front ones off when I lowered it.

Mine came with them but they aren't color matched. I think they would look better painted so they can blend in more with the car.

The fronts don't look bad at all.

I find the rears ruin the look.

I have A-Spec kit, so they're off heheh.

I didn't have to take them off my CL when I lowered it, the pavement did it for me on the first drive.

I have them and like the way they look. Painted does look better but the black is fine with some colors.

I had them on until I did the a-spec kit. They keep a lot of tar and rocks from doing damage to the doors and bottom of quarter panels.
Here is a pic of my car a few years ago with them on.



I like them to match the color of the car.
