It depends. Do you plan on upgrading your wheels? If so, what color? I'd say it really depends on the other accents on the car. Example:
Red mudflaps would look badass with something like this:

It all depends on how much the wheels are going to run me. I really want 16's with some thicker sidewalls maybe 50? I am having heavy traction issues with the 3s plus the e153 lsd trans. So I want something thats maybe 8" wide. But I do plan on rally crossing my car next season and I am sure 8" is too wide for that. But it will be perfect for autoxing.

I was thinking red too, but what if I want the bronze rims? I know bronze is played out, but I can't really afford the nice gloss white rims.

Sounds like a plan. What wheels do you recommend for rallyxing? Like wheel size?

Okay 16's it is. But I just want that 17" inch look. What do the WRC gt-fours run on for the rallys? Don't they need 17's because of the Big Brakes on them?

http://www.motorspeed.com/sitepix/products...co_mudflaps.jpg Trying to decide what color. Blue? White ? Red? Keep in mind this is on a white car. Must match the car or match the trim. Otherwise it needs to have some INSANE color on it so that it's all that you see. I think black would look good on a white car. but if you dont want it car or trim color, Do it neon-color change from pink to lime. no-one would ever see your car again, as their eyes would be so fixed on the flaps Seriously, Black or White.

I guess I'll save for the BBS rims posted. I really like them. But REd mud flaps it is. Driveby, you don't happen to have those flaps still laying around do you?

your best bet if you want the sparco flaps, go with the white ones. these guys are pretty cool to deal with and they have reasonable prices.
http://www.rallylights.com/detail.aspx?ID=3437 if you want to be like me, soopa cool and still have change to spare, you could go with the $5 ikea mudflaps. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90131935 |

You'd have to trim them to fit. I think they are made out of some rubber material, so if you plan to drive your car in dirt like I am, they will just chip and flake on you.

you'll probably have to do some cutting to get it to fit to your liking.
