Default Mud Flaps/ Splash Guards for C5

I have heard there is a vendor on the forum who is producing the C6 splash guards to fit the C5's. Can anyone tell me who ?

thanks

These? http://www.nakidparts.com/id30.html

If so, see the FS section. I'm selling mine for $40.

I actually purchased two sets of the "SUV flexible mud guards" at Pep Boys for around $10 / set. I traced the package to make a template of the guard... fit it ot my fenders to use the original mounting points (fender well screws) and all went very well.

Good luck!

I like those in the 5th thread! Pretty pricey!

It's not that hard to buy a set and mod them and the corvette tax on the ones here on the forum is crazy.

Just do a search of Jasons(JDMvette) threads and you will find what you need. Or search "splash guards"

Did you have to remove the wheels to install the splash guards? I'm also not overly crazy about drilling holes in my fenders...

NO, I didn't have to take the wheels off. No drilling either. The kit came with the same style push screws as the ones that are on the flenders but these are longer. Also the gaurds have about an inch of 3m tape on the top.

Cool, they look good. Wonder if it's the same for the C5 though?

Check out there web site www.apsisusa.com Jersey is a great guy. BTW I went with the short version on the front and Z06 long version on the rear. Also added the front splitter which installs using 7 screws.
