Not a fan. At least of both the pic's here. They do nothing for the lines of the car and look totally out of place.

The rainbow MX 3 is an actual rally car. It is one of the few MX3 racing. I believe it was sold like 2 years ago now.

There IS a green MX-3 that looked great with them, but I can't find the damned picture. :(

I posted it maybe a year and a half ago, in one of my very numerous "which color should I paint my car?!" Threads -.-

Totally agree, mud flaps belong a truck. Only ones I do like are the stock ones that came on mx-3

Mx-3's don't come with mud flaps, they come with mud guards. MY truck had some mud flaps and mud guards, but ironically I took off my mud flaps...It was a recommendation from the Nissan Truck Club cause apparently they just get ripped off when off-roading.

You could put them on for the winter and remove them for the summer. Buy a couple of plastic garbage cans from Home Depot and fabricate away. :welder:

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Alright, the car with the mudflaps that I liked... I posted a picture of a light green MX-3 with fender flares, that were low profile brushed steel.

I can not find the thread for the life of me, but I know that I posted it before. -.-
