I just cant bring myself to liking them. I had them on my 350Z and I thought they appeared hideous. Im interested in seeing the stealth splash guards.

I have them, like having them, appreciate less road rash on the gills since I do a lot of hiway driving and I believe it is that everyday sandblasting at hiway speed that is the greatest cause of the paint chips in the gill area.

I figure a link is ok since they are an official sponsor....

Interested in these since they are not very noticeable.

I love the ZL1 rear splash guards. Nominally functioned with the ZL1 rear skirt, they work just as well alone in providing adequate protection against debris chips in the lower rear quarters. They are very stealthy. I autocross'd on some harsh surfaces with all kinds of stuff on the ground, and these things take the brunt of any flying course trash.

See if you can spot them

I kind of like the ones that are body color. I never thought of getting these before but I do hate the amount of gunk on my gill overlays. How is the install? Do they use factory holes or do you have to drill into anything? I've put them on my Hummer when I had it and they were easy so hopefully these are too.

Sorry but the RPI ones look very ugly to me like something you would buy from JC Whitney or PEP Boys
