As an autocrosser, with big sticky tires, I love them. Keeps the small rocks, sand, OPR from spraying/sandblasting down the side of the car.

so i added it to the list of things i wanted in the car before i purchased
i figured add it to the deal and if i dont like it ill take it off
now that i see it more frequently in my car everytime i see a 370 without it it just looks like something is missing

Thanks for the pics - do you have a closer view of the front ones?

:eek: So much hate for the Splash guards? I love these things. Not only they protect your paint, they complete the look of your car (exterior wise). It didn't came with my 350Z but I installed them myself. I wasn't 100% sure how the 370Z splash guards would look but once I saw them in "Educ8r's" car, I was SOLD! Thanks, Alex.

Take a look at these pics

I was teetering, but AK's pics sold me.

I like the look on the Coupe, but not on the Roadster. Not sure why, exactly, as the cars are the same below the beltline, but it's how I feel.

I like the functionality, though.

Had them thrown in with the purchase, but didn't think I'd like the look, so didn't install them.
I just got fed up with the side spray of grit and dirt, and gave in and put them on.
I was really surprised at what a difference they make for such tiny guards.
And hey,... they don't look bad at all.

Don't have them on mine, but kinda wish I had them. The splash guards kinda make the Z look like there's a body kit on.

No splash gaurds here. Are these an option on the sport package? or is the car supposed to come with them?


(Insert snappy answer here Triple's) :icon17:

I'd like to have a set, bought the carbon ones when I first bought the car not knowing they wouldnt fit the nismo (shop said they would)

They are pretty subtle and will likely save you from some rock chips...I'm all for them

I like them, Personally I don't think they are useless and they really arn't all that noticeable. Though I notice right away if a Z doesn't have them.

KillerBee370 01-20-2010 11:16 AM

Well one thing I can tell you from a point of view from someone who tracks his car is that the front one would definitely help as I always have to clay bar that area to get the rubber off (as well as right in front of the rear wheel). The rear doesn't seem to be needed whatsoever as I never have anything on that section after track use.
