Default Mud Flaps

Ok, you guys talked me into it. I see a pair of molded flaps
in the Corvette America catalog and they look like the
ones you guys have. Definetely will get them painted
when I get the injector covers painted.

Any problems painting these? Is there a particular brand
that is best suited to paint?
You guys rock,
Craig

Here is a shot of the moulded on the rear:


This one shows the front.



Notice the moulding I put around the edge that touches the paint. It's a soft vinyl moulding that can be used on door edges.



Mine is still sporting the original paint and the dings and chips are way down. I'd do it again in a heart beat.

Strick,
We have the same car!! Color combo I mean. Mine is a '93.
These look GREAT as does your car. Not sure I want to paint
the flaps now as yours blend in quite nicely. I am extremely
keen on your exhaust system. Which system is that?

You guys gotta stop showing me pics of your beautiful c4's.
It's like a gauntlet thrown on the driveway.

Thanks,
Craig
