MUD GUARDS

Has anyone put the mud guards on ? I'm talking about the ones from GM parts. They come painted . How do they go on? I've never seen them on a car. THANKS, MEL

I personally don't like them. Then again, that's just me.

I have them on, no drilling required. I believe its 2 screws and a little plastic pushpin. U can put them on with the wheels on and probably takes 20 minutes to put on

I have mine off right now visiting the finish on the business sides. They've gotten pretty shagged from all the highway driving so I'm repainting the inside and the bottom edge with truck bed liner.
I would mention that the 2-sided tape included with them was drying up which is why I took them off, and when they go back on it's with a better quality tape.

I like mine too but would really like the option of being able to use side skirts with them?

I bought a set and forgot where I put them. Not on my car, that's for sure.

I have the ZL1 splash guards. They work great for me. Not the best pic for the splashguards but best I have.

I think they're ugly, but I'm getting them for my car because the scratches and chips are uglier!

I followed this DIY and am very happy with the results. Coupled with the ZL1 rear guards, freaky sexy hawt!
