Mud Flaps
MrP, how is your car doing with the flaps? The OP pictures look pretty clean in the areas behind both front and rear wheels - has this held true? Mine, without flaps, is already looking like it's doing to require regular attention to maintain its pristine white (and black around that rear wheel/bumper area).

Just posted this in the other thread before reading this one, a worthy add on for any of us rural lane folk!

In the US many dealers have an online coupon for 15% off of accessories. This is generally accepted by competing dealerships to earn your business. I purchased them through a dealer & received them next day for $103 total.
The flaps have always made the areas behind the wheels easier to clean as it keeps the asphalt from adhering to/chipping the door paint & body moldings.

I'm impressed with you lot adding the flaps without removing the rear wheels! I only had access to a regular 'L' shaped torx key or a long length 1/2" drive torx key. Neither very successful, not with 20" wheels at least!
I just think of it as getting to know the car better by removing the wheels haha.
