Ugly.
They look like they were taken from a different vehicle. Like a suv or something.
Not sure where u guys dive at, I got 35k mostly highway miles with zero gill chips or anywhere else.

I have 25K miles with no chips. They definitely take away from the look of the car.

I have mixed feelings about mine. They're more than likely temporary until I add GFX.

I had the bulky GM ones first and changed over to the flaps of rpi-designs. looks better, but then again the big ones weren't that bad on a black car.

I actually like mine. I asked for them to be installed on my 1LS when I bought it.

Wow, really mixed crowd. I love mine. I think the body line at the bottom of the car is too flat, and boring. The splash guards are the best look, without GFX. And until GM decides to paint match GFX.. which they should do in the first place..

I really like mine and have them on both Camaro's. They also help with the dirt and rock chips. Each person has their own likes and dislikes, so I do what I like for my cars. Then again, I have never been much of a follower.

I like mine. I have the oem splash guards for functional purposes rather then just style. I have CGM on my white Camaro bc the ones I ordered from GM looked yellow next to my white and I have CGM bowties already. I actually like them in a different color. Im thinking of wrapping mine in carbon fiber once I start the cf accents in the next week or so.

Living in a northern state where we have alot of road gravel even several months after good weather rolls around, the splashguards are a god sent.

I can see you guys living down south not needing them but up here in Montana, even with nothing but pavement driving, in one summer you will need to repaint your car from rock chips. They are a very good idea up here and I like mine, I think they look great. Not a fan of the ground effects, at least not the factory ones, takes away from the curves of the camaro in my opinion and make things look to angular, again, my opinion.
