Mud flaps
Has anyone tried these OEM mud flaps?

It is very wet here and I get a lot of spray on the lower panels. I'm hoping that these might reduce the amount of spray. I wonder if I could install them myself and also how badly they would scrape against my driveway.

I have a 2011 E350 and purchased them from dealer. Lots of people do not like them but I had to given that I would rather protect the car. You can paint them same color as the car, but make sure you go to a body shop to do it. You need to use a special epoxy flex coat so the paint adheres and they need to be baked. I think the car looks great with them on and they do a great job.

I assume the dealer attached them for you.
