Question Mud guards, splash guards, mud flaps, whatever you call them

Mud guards, splash guards, mud flaps, whatever you call them. Do they really not even make them for the Sport model? I've been searching everywhere and they all say Base model only. There is so much buildup on slush and ice and snow on the car yet I know if I try and kick or scrape it off I'm just going to scratch the paint. I also don't like how it rides when all of that is on there.

How can they not even bother to make them for this model? Anyone find them or something that works?

I'm looking for some "rally type" ones too, like some red C-Ones... I think there would be alot cutting and customizing, but I think it could look good.

I don't know about the sideskirts, but the rear bumper/lip combo would necessitate (sp?) a completely different style mudguard than the base model, and from my dealership days, they only design mudguards to go with base model panels, no lips or anything like that

yea most cars with lip kits wont have mudguards, as the lips use the same mounting holes as the mudguards. My buddy had to sacrafice his mudguards for the OEM on his integra. Id say if u really wanted to, u could custom it on to the car...wont be easy but u would definitely get major props!
