The mudflaps. Any kind of "paint protection" looks as silly on the car as wrapping your TV remote control in a plastic bag. A few chips are unavoidable, but who really cares.

Mud Flaps
Why did you buy the cheap ones?
The ones with the attached round red plastic reflectors would have been my suggestion - NOT

I didn't buy them, lol. I was looking at the accessories on MBUSA and saw the flaps, and decided to post them here to see what people thought of them. Never had them before on any of my S classes, and after these comments, definitely never will....
