Look in the gallery. JDN has them and so does realtyman.

There are also some older threads about mud flaps that have some pics too:

So do I. I get good comments on them and they do reduce the crap on your car after a rain or what not. Helps out people behind you as well.

I did a launch and broke the right rear wheel loose. It spun and smoked unmercifully. The mud flaps saved the area behind the flap, but in front of and above the flap the melted rubber settled like road tar in fine strings. The wheel was pretty gooked up, too. Neither was noticeable until I washed it yesterday and couldn't figure out where all that "road tar" came from.

I like mud flaps and have had them on my cars for years. Saves the paint catches a lot of the stuff wheels pick up.

I also help to reduce the amount of snow sticking to the fender area behind the wheels too. It restricts most of the snow to the wheel well. A great accessories for New England weather.

They look like ASS. Show me another euro luxo cruiser with mudflaps. Mudflaps are for Jeeps, not E60's. Wake up people. What's the matter, you have nothing else to spend your money on. If you have mudflaps, you might as well go to autobarn and get reflectors for them too. And, while your at it, put some curbfeelers on the car too. LOL!!!!!!

great to give such comment when logged-in anonymously ;(

But I agree though. In fact I do not understand why people "spoil" the beauty of their car with these ugly mudflaps. Yes I know, they are partly functional there are car-washes too

I am also curious to know why only Americans want clear-bra protection on their cars; NA seems the only continent where this accessory is available (or perhaps Australia too ?) Here in Europe - even in very dusty conditions - most people just drive their car with out protection.
