Candy White - Mudflaps or not?

[Beardo]

My new motor has mud flaps fitted, i'm not sure wether to take em off or not tbh. I think they spoil the lines and make it look fussy round the arches particularly at the back but then again with a white car i probably need em.

Here's some dirty photos but you should get the idea.

What do you lot think?

Yes I make you right it does spoil the lines, I wouldn't have them my motor

I agree.
The rear ones seem to look so odd in those pictures.
But if you live in a really muddy area, I would say they are a good idea. They do protect the bodywork a bit, I imagine.

Mud flaps are cool on a rally car or off roader......mud flaps on an Aston.....hell no!
Mud flaps on a sport hatch......hell no!!

I have a 3 door candy white and would take them off!

Now come on Kenny.....you know that Candy White 3 door will look good with some 15" Mud Pluggers to go with those mud flaps!

They just look wrong on the mk6, I think its the fact the rear bumper is fully painted before with the half black bit it looked ok.

I have a 3dr candy white and I quite like the mud flaps....plus I didnt have them on my mk 5 and the number of stone chips up the side of the doors was mad....7 months on and none on the mk 6...touch wood!

Black mk6 no stone chips on my paintwork thank goodness, and I don't have mudflaps as they totally detract from the look of the car.
