I tend to agree looks better without, but I also think it looks find with them on. They do serve a purpose, I get splash up on the rear bumper.

Mud guards with a black car looks good as it is not a distraction at all.

the function they serve outweights the looks. They are very useful.

They also look real good on a 4th gen, but 5th gen not so much.
