does anyone know or believe the SP's will minimize gill chipping?

Kendell347 · 07-15-2010, 02:04 PM

The front ones will definitely help in the reduction of gill chipping. The rear SP's will help in the reduction of scratched on the rear fender

I put the molded splash guards on a few months ago after seeing the chips on the gills. I haven't noticed any "new" chips since they've been installed. They do work!!

YES. Get them...

h2oplay · 07-15-2010, 02:37 PM

just called my dealer, he's got them waiting for me....

here's what's odd, I don't have 1 chip on the nose or the rear behind the tires.....

Yes they work and yes I hate them but I'd rather have them on then have chipped fenders

You can get them at www.gmpartsdirect.com for about $160 shipped, put them on yourself in about one hour. You don't have to take the wheels off to put them on.

I prefer this than wrapping the car in 3M clear bra..the installation is easy if you're handy with tools rather than having the stealership do it.

I have them and actually like the way they look. The front ones do help protect the car from chips. The rears really just protect the car behind you.

They work wonders!!

chevyman57 · 07-15-2010, 11:18 PM

Man the splash guards are the best. My car did not leave the lot without them. I still do not have a paint chip anywhere. They don't look that bad at all and really do work. They are worth the money!

T_MECO · 07-16-2010, 02:53 PM

They are worth it and don't take away from the looks

caverman · 07-16-2010, 04:17 PM

Anyone have any pics with them on a Victory Red?
