I can't use my front 2 because my car is too low and springs too damn soft, so they scrape everywhere, all the time.

I still have my rear 2 because it helps complete the rear wheel arch. See how the rear bumper on your car doesn't extend down nearly as far as your sides? Since you don't have any kind of rear lip or skirt, rear flaps would help continue that wheel arch and make it more closely match the front wheel arch.

I agree 100%, that's why I've always had all 4, on mine, it completes the look.

no mud flaps looks better, but mudflaps do their jobs.

take them off for show. But, they do save your fender paint and keep them pretty clean. on keeping your hatch clean for when you want to show it.

they can actually start to rub into the paint and leave permanent marks (as mine did on my LS....hence why they are now gone).
