How do splash guards look on light exterior? Any pics?

I've see splash guards on black and dark green TL exteriors. Have not seen on white, desert mist, or silver. Anyone got them and if so could direct me to or post a pic? How do YOU think they look?

They will mess up your paint, lot of people have experienced this when they decide to take them off to install a body kit or something..

Just dont get them..

If you do not plan to take them off, it should not matter.

It shouldn't scratch any paint because they some in contact with plastic I believe from what I can tell. In Canada they come standard up front so that's what I can see from my car. I am thinking about getting them for the back, they look fine since they follow the arc of the wheel well realy well.

The ones in the front will touch metal. And IMO scratching the paint is still a problem even if you dont remove them because it could lead to rusting.

Another option would be to put down a clear automotive sticker on the metal and then place the plash guard over it. This has been detailed in a thread here. Try a search if you are interested.
