I currently have a 2018MY NX which I specified with mud flaps all round and I believe they have helped in keeping the bodywork clean and I think enhance the appearance of the car. 

I have a new 450h+ on order and have again specified the fitting of mud flaps. 

Not cheap addition but they are robust and in my opinion worth it.

Ken R thank you

I'd say yes.
I added OEM mud flaps after buying my 2020, I wish I had specced them at the time of collection.
They seem to suit the chunky SUV type vehicle and keep most of the crud from flicking on to the paintwork under the rear bumper, which accumulates very quickly due to the curve in design exposing the tire under the car.

I always fit them.  If they only help to reduce some of the crap flung up the sides they’re worth it.  Quite easy to fit so don’t pay the £197 or whatever daft sum they are advertised at.  Victor demonstrates!

I bought mine online, cheaper than dealer prices and had Lexus fit mine when I had my free winter/hybrid check, which they did FOC.

I see that the 2022 versions are easier to fit than the 2020, and no hole drilling needed, which is good
