I've got a way to make cutting them down a lot less time consuming.

great response on mud flaps
I want to thank all for the great response and ideas. I am going to order the C 6 flaps and follow the posted ideas but put them on the front. Lot of talented people out there!

Seriously,I think they could look pretty good,they would just need to be trimmed a bit thinner so they don't start as high on the fender
Maybe use @ 1/2-2/3 of the length they are on the rears
I think it is worth a try,just a sliver of a try
Edit: clarification:
In the following pic if you can imagine the flap on the front starting just about the top of the front scoop or so,continuing down with the same Profile as the rears,ending in about the same area
I think it could work........

I like my splash guards and am happy to show them. They work very well and I have had them for three years with no problems.
