Hi all,

I see the value of having them, but not sure if they add personality to the car or take away from the look.
Conflicted and could use some help deciding.

I put mine on...I like them. In absence of an aggressive body kit - this to me helps butch it up a bit.

The splash guards on the Q50, particularly the rear, are more stylish and add character. The guards for the Q70 do a poor job of accentuating the body lines.

I like them. However for some reason my driver side front one is flapping around. Need to investigate one of these days.

Also, OT, but...DAMN that Q70 rear end is sexy. To be honest, after owning my M56x for almost 9 months now, I'm still not a fan of that rear. The 2007 I had before that was MUCH better looking from the back. I wish it was an easy swap to go from a 2011 rear to a 2015 rear.

I had one flapping on my M37. They are held on by a few screws, nylon rivets, and two sided tape. Had to replace a nylon rivet and the two sided tape. I thought it looked better with it than without it.

I think e mud flaps gives the m37 a more aggressive look. I plan on purchasing some in the near future as well.

Thank you....I appreciate the comments and feedback.

parkstr8r said it best - the mudguards butches it up a bit. Who doesn't like classy with a little butch! :dblthumb:
Ilaykol - agreed the rear end makes the vehicle.

Decision made - I am going to put them on! This forum rocks! Happy 4th!
