I was looking at mud flaps, and was wondering if anyone has any reccomendations. If you do, please toss me an Ebay link so I can purchase asap. Here's what I'm looking at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...sspagename=WD1V
if you live in the southeast you can for sure get these from your local dealer and not have to pay shipping. any other part of the country, i'm not sure if they have mudflaps yet....
i can atest to their effectiveness. when i first got my prius, during the first month i was getting frustrated by splashes and road tar, it was just too much of a hassle to spend about an hour more just to remove them. (even with those road tar sprays, they can really be stubborn). so i went on and purchased a set (for some reason nobody in the US sold them back then so i had to order them from a dealership in canada). after that the splashes and road tar were greatly reduced and would sometimes have none at all! :mrgreen:
lol! now on topic, i got mine at the dealer. kinda pricey IMO but about standard price for a car bra. we paid in the 110-120 range (he works at the dealer). but it is REALLY worth it. the front end is almost flawless. we went a few weeks without the bra on at the beginning, had a stone chip or 2 but no new ones. and cleaning bugs off is so easy. the only place you have to clean bugs off paint is 3-4 of the little suckers on the hood weekly and then the side mirror housings need a good cleaning. worth it for the time saved washing the car, at the very least!
