so, this isn't that big of a deal, but it's irritating.

apparently, while on my old tc, an 05, i had all 4 mudguards.

now with an 06 tc, i only have the rear 2. i tell them there must be 4. they check into it and they say there are definitely only 2, but they'll get me the other 2 anyway. now, maybe its just my perception, but after i put the front ones on my 05 tc, the amount of buildup on the car dramatically reduced. so scion gets rid of the fronts? weird.

anyone else get this?

 

I couldn't imagine Scion just putting on rear mudguards. The front is where they are needed most.

 

i know! its so weird. i even talked to a scion rep online and he said there are only the rear 2 for 06...

 

i have an 06 and i installed my mud gaurds myself. there is definately 4 of them. i got them from mcgeorgeparts and mcgeorge is an oem dealer (i think) but yeah it has four gaurds and having a super white IT TOTALLY HELPS!!!! =]

 

yeah, those are the 05's :] i think my dealer ordered those, since the rears are definitely a different shape than the fronts. i was actually going to tell them to order from mcgeorge...

 

slighly OT, but what's the install like? I'm planning on getting a set for winter.

and the 05's definitely fit the 06, right?

 

the install is easy. just drill 2 holes as i recall. its very straightforward. the other holes are already there for them to mount.

and the body panels are the same, so yes, they fit!

 

Wow, I can't believe there are only 2 mudguards. I am actually only running front ones at the moment and it makes a huge difference in the amount of grime on the side of my car. I don't have the back ones on at the moment because I bought them from a friend and he lost the U-clips. Its fine with me though, I kinda like the look.

 

anybody with some pics? I would consider running them all year if they don't look too bad.

 

When I installed mine they didn't even require drilling. The screws go right through the plastic. They look great.

 

they do look great any time of the year. and they totally help. get em :]

 

when i picked up my tc in may this year i had mudguards on all 4 tire wells, mine is an 06...

 

yeah. even on my super white, its a very subtle diffrence in aesthetics, that do add a cool effect, also i really dont mind because it does help. as for install i just took off all my tires and drilled. just because i wanted to make shure they were uber tight. as for pics ill get them later tonight since i am at work. but if you cant wait, just search for mud guards, i actually looked on here before i bought mine.

 

i have 06 and i have all 4.

 

Here you go...





I painted mine black. And seriously, I forget they are there. I tried to find some pix with them in sight, but I can't find any! The 'Guards blend in too damn much! If you get them, make sure to get 4 of them.

 

nice all red tyc lights. i'm still debating on weither i want them all smoked or all red like yours.

 

when i bought my tc...(jan. 06) i had mudguards on them...all four...

 

thanks! I thought they would stand out more than that. may have to consider throwing them on asap.

and I agree with yellowxboy, those red tyc tails look niiice! how's the color of the turn signals, being that they're yellow shining through red?

 

i didnt like the mudguards..never really liked them to begin with..think its stupid IMO but hey thats just me..never had them on n e other car why start now

 

Mudguards are dumb, dumb...why the heck would u put them on ur ride??...GEESH Man!!!!
