same as the window tints thread, always had flaps on my cars, but think i have never seen a porsche with mud flaps on, is this something else that is frowned upon, or is it just no one makes them for porsche's?

Porsche use stone guards instead of flaps.

You're answering your own question again :)

Mud flaps will cost you MPG & reduce top speed. Ordinary cars it don't matter. :)

I bet the Norwegian 928's had those as well as wheel arch extensions as standard on all wheels.
