2. The wrap-around design is nice and streamlined, but it wears on the clear-coat of the car and can permanently damage it over time.
3. They won't fit with most (any?) aftermarket side skirts without some modifications.

Good points.
1. I don't "plan" on going off road ......
2. I figure "I'll" be worn out before the clear coat is ......
3. I have no plans for side skirts ...... I used to chase "skirts" but not any more .......
I usually don't like any kind of mud flaps, but I find the OEM mud flaps on my 2013 FR-S don't look all bad ....... or I just got used to them ......
