Mud Flaps - YES OR NO?

[1986_Celica_GTS]

I'm thinking about removing the mud flaps on my gts. If I don't take them off they will have to be painted What do you think?

If you take them off your car is gonna get dirty faster, and get hit with more $h!t. But if you are ever gonna get a body kit or something there is no point in painting the flaps, since you will end up removing them anyways. Maybe just do a cheap black paint or get rid of em.

My main problem will be finding the paint because the car got painted a hot red just before I bought it. I'm going to check out a few stores, if no paint, they're getting tossed! Thanks for the reply man.

I decided not to remove them afterall. It received a paint job before I bought it and unfortunately they didn'rt get underneath the flaps.
