Splash guards are dumb...almost as silly as front bras on cars. (just my opinion of course), Its harder to clean splash guards than the lower part of the fender and 1/4 panel. If G.M. put them on all Camaros they would be the first thing guys would be taking off and throwing away.

myold88, I am not quite sure your opinion is shared by all.
Have you received your Camaro yet? By your signature I cannot tell. One reason I got them was to limit the amount of debrise hitting my car from the wheels. I can tell you these splash guards are functional. As far as cleaning, they are just as easy to clean as the car itself. They do stop the road tar and such. I would rather clean the road tar off the guards than off the camaro's body. So far, this is the case. I wish you the best when you get your car. Let me know how your car does with road tar, rocks, and such.

I think they look just fine... It's not like they are the big ol'e mud flaps with "Betty Boop" on them.....

I love the splash guards, especially how they are already painted body color.
It gives the car a more complete look to me. Adds some style to it. |

Funny, I never even noticed the splash guards in those photos until someone mentioned them. I was admiring the car too much I guess!

I stopped at a local dealership to check out IOM.
It looks MUCH better in person than in pics. I'm not a fan of orange, but IOM actually looks nice.
