Mud flaps for C43 sedan?

I'm considering installing mud flaps to protect the paint.
Has anybody installed them? Any pictures?
Will it make much difference?
Does it change the look of the car much?

There is a thread around here somewhere with pics.


I've ordered some knockoffs from China for mine but neither my car nor the flaps are here yet so I can't comment much further.

3M Xpel vinyl wrap on the leading edges of the wheel openings will also work great and without any visual pollution.

You could paint them before you install them . Get a different color than that plastic black .

My Chinese knock offs came in the mail today. Will have to try and install them this weekend.


Stay tuned.

So installed the knockoff mud flaps today. A bit fiddly for sure but not a big deal.


So for the $50 or so they cost, I would say they should work just fine.


Cheers.
