Molded Splash Guards?

What do you guys think of an IROC with molded splash guards? They are like mud flaps but are made of plastic and mold to the contour of the body. They are black and would go on a white IROC. Anyone have any pictures of IROC's with these or regular mud flaps? thanks

I have seen them, but not installed on a car yet. I think the contrast would look fine. If you area has roads that are sanded have excessive gravel they can help to save the paint from pitting behind the wheels. I know someone that made brackets to attach them when he drove on such roads in Norway with his 87 Convertible. Then he removes them when he shows the car at a car show. Like a lot of mod's, some will like it and others give it thumbs down. If you like it, do it. 8^)

I think it would look a bit awkward. I say don't do it.
