are you concerned about damage to the paint on the body panels behind the tire wells?

I used to have mud flaps on my old 97 3228i, but I found that they used to hit parking lot speed bumps and the like. When I switched to a 540i and then an M3, I had a large, custom-cut piece of 3M stone guard placed behind the wheels on both cars. Never worried about damage to the paint in those areas again, and it did not marginalize the aesthetics of the vehicle. I can send pics to you of the 3M product on my car if it helps.

BTW, how are you liking the Adaptive Drive?

No, I am worried about debris flinging back onto the bow of the Seadoos. I really like the Adaptive Drive. Took about an hour to get used to. Now I do not even notice it...... until I get in my wifes Audi and it not there!
