so should i remove em? they hard to remove and is there a write up?

also, should i pay honda 75 bucks to install a new rock sheild under the engine?

I like my mud guards, most people here will tell you to take them off though. They are absolute cake to take off. Literally, just a handful of screws.

I wouldn't pay Honda $75 to install a new shield. Then again, I am not going to pay them to replace my timing belt this summer either.

Remove them. All of them.

Looks so much better with them off. IMO.

The shield is really easy to install yourself. Once you look at it you can pretty much decipher how it goes on

i took mine off and love the lude even more without them

I put mine back on. I was getting rock chips behind the wheels.

Redline · 05-01-2003, 08:54 AM

I removed mine to accomodate my bodykit.

Flaps can stay or go, but you really need that shield under the motor is a vital component of the Lude aerodynamics.

Si4WS · 05-01-2003, 10:41 AM

I like them. I even bought the rears to match the fronts. I had to take mine of for my kit though. They do look good IMO and protect your car.

SlowSi · 05-01-2003, 11:34 AM

Si4WS, do you wanna sell them to me?

Mine came with no mud guards.

I at least want to have the front mud guards.

SoFlaLude · 05-01-2003, 11:37 AM

I bought the front and rears for $27, but only have the rears on now. With my drop, the fronts would have a tendency to scrape some during hard turns. I love the rears because they help visually drop the rear of the car, 'ludes just kinda have this line that slides up at the rear and the flaps help correct it to me.

Preyluder · 05-01-2003, 07:05 PM

Mine are staying until I get the blessed RS kit.

Prelude_2_NV · 05-01-2003, 09:44 PM

I removed mine so I wouldn't wreck them with my drop.

OSOFAST10 · 05-02-2003, 12:12 AM

i took out the front but kept the rear ones. i love how it looks with only the rear ones. it looked kinda naked without the back mud guards, but that's just my 0.02

SlowSi · 05-02-2003, 10:42 AM

front ones keep the side of the car a lot cleaner...

Preyluder · 05-02-2003, 12:50 PM

Yeah, I think that the front ones would serve a much better purpose than the rear ones, although I'm sure that without either one, you'll get blemishes on the car, which sucks.

SlowSi · 05-02-2003, 01:19 PM

I like all 4.

red92si · 05-02-2003, 04:55 PM

My lude only came with the front two, and Im going to leave them on...

brendon2k · 05-02-2003, 05:06 PM

I took mine off but since I am going back to stock I will probably put them back on.
