I got shot of mine last week, as long as you dont go smashing peoples windscreens when you have been out to play. and your right that they make no difference when you are out in the mud.

They are also not an MOT requirement.

i find they make a differeance but hey,i need them to pass scrutineering for comps n hillrallys,dead handy for when you catch some 1 up N there no throwing stones up at u,also handy for the person behind you on the rope if your pullin them out as otherwise they need good wipers(well i normally find 1/2 ton o mud on there bonnet after ive pulled them out)

They help your Landie mark its territory as when you park everything slides off them :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
Even better if you've got the 'Clearpass' type, as they gather even more :lol:

I removed mine a while ago.

Didn't think it was possible to run over your own mudflaps :?
