I have them on the back also!!! These are from BMW and they come in black. I like the contrast. I guess I could have them painted to match the color of the car. You know what I will call the body shop I deal with and see how much it would be to paint them. I just called my body shop and they can paint them!!! So I may even consider it even thou I already mounted them. Will see.

Actually the car in the pics don't have the rear mudflap on the right hand side, only the rear left side has it.

Dropped off allready or is it two sets of pics?

LOL!! Sorry for the confusing pictures!! The pictures are from several sets. The mud flaps are on all 4 wheels wells. They were very easy to install. I looked into painting the flaps the same color but I really like the contrast. The pictures do not do it justice!!!!

In my opinion, I think you should paint them....to me, they look "cheap" unpainted (like an aftermarket add-on).
