Do i only need splash guards for the front of my camaro? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Noticed a lot of throw back just behind the two front tires so I bought the RPI stealth SG and it fits well in front but looks ugly as hell on back. Haven't had the car for a month yet but haven't noticed anything on the back end. Can I get away with just the front or will I eventually get splash on the back?

tires will kick up spray on the rear. I would keep them. Maybe look at the Zl1 flaps they are less noticable

I only installed the front ones. I have my SS for 6 years and no stone chips in the rear.

Yeah I was talking to some guy who only had them on the front and I didn't see any problems on the rear of his. He said don't worry about it

What they said. . .

I shaped some truck "mud flaps" and put them just on the front, works GREAT!

Look at my avatar pic. These are the Husky brand front guards and they look really nice IMO. They have the same type of sand pebble texture and molded edges that the GM ZL1 rear guards have so they match them really well. On white, you can't even tell they are on the car. The lower bodysides and rockers stay pristine clean now.

I have the RDP stealth mudflaps for the front only. Works great.

front only here. you will get water spray on rear if road wet, but no stone chips likely.
