3rd Gen owners.....mud guards

One of my mud guards is broken. I've been thinking of replacing it. The dealer wants $85 for ONE mud guard!!!

Anyway, either I replace it or take all of them off. So you guys with a 92-96 camry, w/o body kits, do you have yours on or off???

Junkyard! Don't take it off, you'll mess up your tires.

you can make them on your own
one guy I know, he's got Integra, and he took his mud guards off and traced them on aluminum sheet and cut them out and put aluminum ones on, he made them almost to the ground. Now when ever he slams on a gas his back tilts back a little and the mud guards give off sparks when scraping the ground It's pretty cool looking.
I guess that would work if you have a really low drop on your camry lol

How would it do that???

Yeah I was thinking of taking them all off b/c it would make the car look cleaner, but I'm not going to if it will really damage my tires.

Hmmm...

It's not a friggin truck, it's a sedan!

Your fenders will be fine. Why would your tires get messed up?
