Splash guards
Seems like the part of my car that is always dirty is right behind the tires.
Slash guard thoughts?
Keep them black or paint body color?
Anyone have good pictures?

Check out my thread about splash guards. The last post are my splash guards on my 93. They work really well and after almost a month, there is absolutely NO dirt or grime behind the tires

also, here's my album on Razzi: http://razzi.me/albums/19468-c4-splash-guards
Also, before someone gets on me for not washing a white Vette in almost a month of daily driving, it's been constantly raining just about every week this month. I plan on cleaning it up nice after Sandy passes.
Cheers!

The PO had Altecs on the rear so I got a set for the front and painted them. I like the look and it does help with cutting down on rock chips, then again I only drive 10 mph on the gravel road. I wasn't aware of any paint issues with the molded guards...guess I should pull a couple and see if there's any damage.

I don't know for how many years the splash guards were installed on my '91, but when I pulled them, there was not even primer left at the worst spots. So I think a strip of vinyl would delay the problem, but not prevent it.
