    I have had my flap on for many years now...

    They work really well in stopping grime on the sides of the car.

    Note#1
    going over speed hump too fast and you will scrape the front flaps.

    Note#2
    If your Mk3 is lowered, then I suggest you cut a strip off the bottom of the front flaps upto the bottom of the VW logo... you will still scrape going over humps etc... you will also have less drag as you cut off the bottom lip that faces forward that will cup air and water when it is raining.

    Worst thing is catching them on the speed hump rebound and landing the flaps on the top of the speed hump
