Contoured Splash Guards? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

blazzin1 · 01-12-2009, 04:48 AM

Anyone else notice the color-matched Contoured Splash Guards on p. 330 of the new GMPP Catalog? Any ideas where we can find a picture of these things?? Sure would be nice to actually see them on a Camaro so we could get a good idea of what they'd look like installed. I wonder if they are strictly for the rear wheels, or maybe they come in a set of four??? Anyone have any info or even price?

I have not seen them on a car yet (I also would like to) nor a price.

Sounds like a good idea but definitely need to see em on a car first before buying....

Never2LowChevy · 01-12-2009, 12:32 PM

please! NO mudflaps on your Camaro! But if you do, Petro truck stop sales some cool ones with chrome trucker girls on them!

EllwynX · 01-12-2009, 03:39 PM

If they don't stand out (ie- are color matched) mudflaps are very good to have imo.

I had a 2000 S10 Xtreme in white, and after I added some mudflaps the amount of stuff kicked up onto the paint was cut down by over half.

I'd rather have a set of mudflaps on the back wheels of my Camaro than scratches from stones and stuff kicking up.

the GFX ain't color-matched, though. they only come from the factory in gray

I've been debating on getting the rock-guards for my camaro. Still reserving judgment till I can see them.

They might look good in a contrasting color, like Black or CGM with my IOM

Rodrunner · 01-12-2009, 05:41 PM

No, they have to be color matched or they'll stick out like a sore thumb. What I wish is that they were longer, a longer taper, so they'd look more like ground effects and less like, well you know.......mud flaps.....I hate even typing that.

this one has 'contoured splash guards' on the back

Sean_W · 01-12-2009, 06:38 PM

These are dealer installed right? If so, I may go back after I get the car and add them if I see them on another one first.

THAT'S the look I'm goin' for. Now, is that "man step" as Howie calls it a GM option?

SScattergunSS · 01-14-2009, 05:37 AM

I really think the contoured splash guards will look great, but like it was already stated, I still need to see 'em on a Camaro.
