Default Question for those with painted lowers...
are the wheel spoilers (they look like little mudflaps, there is one in front of each front wheel and one in front of each rear wheel) painted as well or are they left gray?
Thanks a lot everyone.

Mine are painted, but I'd rather they weren't there at all.

Default I'd leave those unpainted since they're not really bodywork, just flexible flaps.>
I'm not painted YET, but it's getting done in a couple weeks.
I'm not getting those painted.

Yeah, and at the location they're at, I doubt the paint would last long...

I sent all my parts in for paint this past week, I'm leaving those mudflaps just the way they are.

Default It's not really a mudflap but it looks a little like one...
<center><img src="http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q33/x1rider/wheelspoiler.jpg"></center><p>It's located in front of the wheel, it's more or less an extension of the wheel well liner.

it's an air deflector, it shapes the air around the front tires to reduce lift.
