Ditto.
I think the fronts look kind of sporty.
Rears look like ***** though. I cringe whenever I see em on a Z!

You all keep calling them "mud guards" like you go bahaing through the mud holes down in hick country, I dont know about you but I try to keep my car as clean as possible. Thats why I have my "splash guards" on, and I appreciate how they keep my cars underbody not looking like the insides of the splash guards.
It might even look better if you were to actually mold the splash guards to the body, so that there wouldnt be any lines. Anyone want to be the first at doing something???? That'd be pretty Word.

If you're ever going nto get sideskirts but don't want go get the full kit I think the mud guards make the skirts look much less out of place. I've never thought about taking mine off.

The fronts look good since they're barely there and are subtle.
The rear...BLAAH... they barely cover my 275 tires. Looks like a 300lb chick wearing a thong.
But they're staying on until I can find the right rear valence kit.
Neighbors up the street keep washing something so I'm always going through puddles. I'd imagine the whole back side would be drenched without em.

to be honest guys they're actually called splash guards, not mud guards, they're more for contaminated water, tar/asphalt, and paint overspray protection for you car more than mud protection...like you said it's a sports car not a mud truck. peace.
