My Rally Armor mudflap Review

So unfortunately I was against any and all mudflaps for a little over a year. After having 18x9.5 +20 wheels, and getting every rock flung onto the lower rear portion of my doors/side skirts, I reluctantly purchased the Rally Armor ones from Oakos Automotive here on EVOm.

Install was pretty straight forward, broke 3 plastic tabs (didnt have to be re-used), took about an hour (i did removed rear wheels). The looks, blah, they don't look horrible, but they won't win you anything at a car show. Quality is excellent and Oakos shipped them to me and provided tracking immediately.

Review:
We got hit with a snow storm and this was where it would prove itself, conditions were terrible, ice and slush everywhere. Drove 31 miles to get home. Keep in mind my new wheels are 19x9.5 +15 so they are not stock sized tucked in wheels. Of course I got a little overspray/splash from other cars but the sides of the car are cleaner than my hood/front bumper/roof, no lie!!!! Before, it would look like I drove through window high mud/dirt.

for the rally armor mudflaps..... and the smooth easy transaction with Oakos Automotive.

sorry for cr*ppy pics, still waiting for a photoshoot.

You should tell the poser in the subbie to stop parking in the garage so you have more room!

I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but there seems to be a giant wormhole leading to another dimension in your rear bumper!!

You know, looking at these in person makes me wonder why the hell they are so expensive.

Very Nice I've been trying to convince my friend to get a set for his WW EVO X. Hopefully you're picture and review is convincing enough

I have had mine for about a year now on my DD. Some things I have observed. They will not hold the shine. I have not found a way to bring it back. I am starting to have problems with the lettering coming off. Thought I would post here. See if there is any info.

As far as function....they are awesome, and I actually really like the look now.

i am lowered on Eibachs, however with 19" wheels, I haven't noticed it scraping at all. I am still 100% happy with these mudflaps, still wish I would have gotten them sooner.

I rub a slight bit on my 18x10s but thats having the wheel fully cut. Rally Armors are where it's at. I love mine. Black with Red Lettering...
