Hey all,

I am getting ready to buy a set of splash guards for my 05 Super White tC. That said, I'd really like to have them color matched to the car to keep the super clean lines.

Anybody know of a dealership or shop that could do this relatively quickly. I'm in Allentown, PA but don't have a lot of faith in the shops around me plus I know that someone out there either does this or can do it at a reasonable price.

Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Dave

 

only way to know is ask? Im sure it might be a heafty price from the dealership tho.

 

you can do it urself. here you go https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...int+mud+guards

 

because of the road debris eventually the mudgurads will have chips.

 

^ not really. if u paint inside the gaurds then yes it will chip but outside it wont from what i've experience with my gf's sw.

 

Great stuff so far. I guess the cost could exceed the benefit if it is too high. I can't help but wonder if a shop could lay on the paint and clear coat thick enough to keep it pretty durable. With regard to the chips, I'd rather have them on the 35 dollar flaps which I could always reshoot then on the finish of the car. I bought the car used but the paint was nearly perfect...suprisingly.

The do-it myself option wouldn't be too bad, but I wonder if anyone out here works in a shop and would be willing to give it a go for a reasonable price.

 

OOOH LOL ok the mud guards. I just woke up because its my day off and I'm reading through this and I'm thinking you guys are talking about the wheel well splash guards. I'm thinking what ? thats the stupidest thing ever. Itl flex, chip, get wet with mud and rocks. I feel dumb haha.

 

I did mine myself. Painted them black. It's not hard but without proper prep, they will crack. A year and a half with no issues. I bet you can find an auto enhancement place in your area that will do them for around $30-$50. Call around.

 

Good stuff. All around and thanks for all of the ideas.

I hooked up with Delta Customs and think they are going to do a bang-up job. I'll post some pics the minute I get the finished product installed. Should be a great compliment to the car and I can't wait to see what it looks like installed.

Thanks,
