I've bought some oem mud guards for my a4 allroad to afford some protection and thought they may add some looks to it. disappointed as to how small they are firstly. Anyone got any experience of them in action : do they work? do they create noise, do they cause spray or reduce spray whilst driving at high speed. I've heard they can retain snow in the archway but that isn't a concern where I live. Any thoughts? I will be fitting them myself which is straight forward.
