I was also thinking about color matching oem splash guards. I'm a bit concerned with paint adhesion and wondering if regular adhension promoter will work.

Did not try it with these but did it on my Talon TSI a few years back. The paint lasted about 2 days before it was chipped and blasted off by dirt and debris. Would assume will be the same with these.

Yeah I imagine painting them anything other than black or grey wouldn't be the best idea for that reason.

Just get flaps like I did!

All Canadian cars come with the stock ones.
We also get heated mirrors for some weird reason.
