C4 Splash Guards
Hey guys,
Do any of you have experience with these splash guards?

I am getting fed up with all the dirt and road grime that gets slung up from the tires. I've already ordered them and they should be coming in soon.

Last year I bought and installed the molded guards by Altec. It offers good style and offers good protection. They look like a factory option. Take a look in photo album for pics of my Vette with em.

pepboys and others carry the same style with a little better coverage and in three different sizes. used them on my track car prior to getting the ground effects, they work well to protect paint if you drive it daily

They don't look too bad IMO. Though your red Vette hides the dirt a lot better than my white! My grandpa's torch red C5 Vert is awesome because you don't have to wash it so often! But I love washing and detailing, so I guess the white fits me.
ah KENTUCKY AIR BRAKES love em
i can't even put them fugly things on my truck

I have the same ones as you on my rears. Painted torch red to match. They look like a factory option. I also added foam door-weatherstrip (bought at Home Depot) to line the perimeter of the inside, to prevent scratching the body.

I had a set like you pictured on the 35th Anni in my avatar and plan to install them on my current 35th Anni; they do a great job of protecting the rocker & rear areas.
Only problem was that the burn-out rubber tended to collect on the fronts of the rear guards...
