No. Its a front wheel drive scion, not an awd subaru lol. There would be no function and in all honesty you would probably get made fun of a lot cuz you would look like you knew nothing about cars. But this looking good is based on opinion. Its just extremely unfunctional on this car especially cuz your not going to be kicking up too many rocks from your rear with your fwd lol

Oh. Yeah those things are fine but he said mud flaps so he might be talking about legit flaps like people put on subarus and trucks. The ones that hang and are just pieces of flexible material. That's what I'm thinking he is talking about. But not sure now. So gaurds tthen yes but actual flaps no

I've got a Crimson Mica car with still the black A-Pillar vinyl and I've put on the CF B-Pillar...There is also lots of black trim on the car. The black mud flaps look good...to me anyway.

Totally proven wrong on this cuz I like the way 1stone incorporated these and I'm from cali so when I here mudflaps its usually pointless unless they are going offroading but I guess they could provide function elsewhere on the street. Looks good too on his car. Just don't go too low with them

I will be getting them for mine soon. MN winters are hard on cars and if I can protect my car until I get out of this state... I will do it!

FF Rally car fo sho ... isn't there a FWD Rally racing-class?


IMO mudguards seem to fail at blocking the mud all too well

I've got them on mine and they look great; the car looks much better WITH them than WITHOUT them. I'll try to get some pictures today for you guys.

Since 2tc posted all those pics and my car isn't situated in a good place for picture-taking, here's just one pic of the side of my tC:



As you can see, they're very subtle.
