    Default Anyone have good cheap splash guard recommendations?

    Basically I want to put splash guards on there that A) Resist snow, rain and other things

    B) protect the body of my car so I don't have to wash as often,

    C) not ot be a jackass like everyone else driving in the snow/rain on the highway in front of me..

    I don't want OEMs, I just want splash guards that work. Please help me in my quest to spend less than $20 on them ...TIA

    They attach with the screws already holding the bumper or fender to the wheel well splash gaurds, I think. They came with the car so I don't know if the previous owner had to drill an extra hole or something. There is a guide in the mods section on how to mount them if you have SE sideskirts.

    I found splashguards that look hotdimmes, found them at Advance Auto for about $30. One the first mods I did to my car.

    I just threw some away that came with my parts car. They were the thick hard plastic ones.

    Didn't think anyone actually wanted these things.
