Put on splashguards Whatcha think

[Pontiacfinder]

Well I decided to put on Splashguards a.k.a mudflaps cuz I noticed alot of dirt kickup on my car so I bought these Pontiac ones cuz True Value didnt have the GA ones that I liked. My driveway gets darn muddy in spring and I just cant stand it when my car gets 1 ounce of dust on it.http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t243/Honda_065/mudflap1.jpg

Looks really good. They should help alot.

Hard to tell with close up pics like that, would like to see a pic from back side at an angle includeing both front and rear before passing judgment.

Looks like you took your time installing those, nice and square to the ground making sure just enough "edge" was showing to protect the corners.

[Pontiacfinder]

You bet i took my time but man it was some work though, I'll try to get more pics of the whole car.

[kody]

I have the exact same ones and love the look as well as the protection they provide against rocks and dirt.

[Pontiacfinder]

kody, when you put urs on did you use one of the existing holes or did you make two new ones.

[kody]

I used the existing holes, really don't like drilling holes in my car although I had no choice when installing my bug deflector.

[Pontiacfinder]

I C , I went below the existing holes cuz it looked way to high for me but its still high enough that they wont touch the ground.

[kody]

Yeah, I noticed yours are mounted lower than mine...got any pics from behind.

i like it, when i first thought of mudflaps on a ga i thought it sounded weird but you pulled it off.

[Pontiacfinder]

I'll try to get more pics tomorrow. I washed the car today so it's alot cleaner now.

[bryan]

I think you may have pulled them off alright. Usually I feel they have too much of a 'rugged' look to them.

I can't wait for the far shots, I also have a white car, I might have to grab a set of these what did they cost you, 35$?

[Pontiacfinder]

Looks good, should save your paint from a lot of rock damage especially if you travel gravel roads very often like I do.

[Jchiasson]

Rears look a little long in that rear shot, but that could be the angle of the pic and the fact the rear bumper has an upward sweep.
Overall :thumbup:

[Pontiacfinder]

Now when I drive I can hear rocks hit the mudflaps instead on the side of my car so I know there working.

[SBUBandit]

should have gotten the big woopass yosemite sam mudflaps. j/k looks good

[sunrunner_pei]

Looks like it's time to replace the driver's side 45-degree reverse light while you're at it. The light is less than $20 at your dealer. :)

[Pontiacfinder]

Yea I have no idea how it got all black and stuff. And another thing when I go to first drive my car the rear brakes make a noise untill I get them warmed up then it goes away do any of you guys know what this could be?

[sunrunner_pei]

The problem with the light is fluid intrusion. Often the pigtail will come out of the housing, and water splashing up from the rear tires will go directly into the lamp. It's a very common problem we lovingly call a 'fishbowl'. :) The water will ruin the reflective surface inside, causing it to blacken over time.

As for the brakes, it could be rust buildup on the drums, your shoes may be worn out, or the shoes may be sticking. It might be time to replace the drums, shoes and spring kit.

Thanks Shawn, i'll tell my parents about this so I can get it fixed up.

Looks good dude! Sorry about the slow response, the PONTIAC logo definately accents the white of your car perfectly
