I looked at my rocker panels and they are dinged up from FOD, however I still plan on installing splash guards to prevent further damage.

I installed them on my CGM in July and have been very happy with them. It's like a lot of mods, as long as you are happy with it, that's all that counts.

Here is a picture of the only one I've seen in person with them installed. I personally don't like them but to each his/her own.

Not true if you leave the Bra on for extended periods Yes it will damage the paint plus if you buy a cheap bra it will hurt. I have been using a Colgan car bra on my 2001 Z/28 for 9 years (if I drive to shows) and I never have a problem you need to clean off the bra on the underside once you use it. I also have one on my 2007 Suburban again no issues.
