Damn Mud Flaps| Indecisive |  Posted: Dec 6 2002, 04:32 PM |
the deranged one  Group: Advanced Members Posts: 5,132 Member No.: 34 Joined: Oct 1st 2002 Location: Vancouver, Canada | well.my front mud flaps seem like they're super long. because when I go over some bumps in the road they scrape along the ground. are there any real advantages to keeping them on other than keeping the car a lil cleaner? and in the fall when I'm cleaning it out before winter there's always like leaves stuck between the inside of the fender and the mud flaps..should I jsut take them off? I also heard that they induce rust too..is that true? |

But i hoping next year i will get my Acura Integra 94 gsr. And when it comes to parts, my brother owns and runs a performance shop so am of thier. But anyways, I whouldnt do any body modifaction, except the exhaust and tires. So that when you race the person will thake you for granted and you could probably beat him. |

you really have it in for Jayson lols. and jayson is rite...youc an't see it in the pic. in those pictures there's actually a big blob of bird crap on the boot but with the angles of the pictures and the glare fromt he light you can't see it. the last guy who painted the car didnt' take off the previous coat of paint so where there were chips and stuff there's wierd ass indentations and there's even some of that paint wrinkling from when you put on too many coats too fast or too much paint at once. and Jayson....I might be able to IF I get the job. I still have to see. I doubt I will be able to though but I'm still gonna hope. | ||
