I agree that fit is important and they look pretty good. I went with Clear Shield instead, but would have considered the guards.

I would also like to know if they will fit C5's with the L5 flares-without goes through the problems of cutting the stock C6 Z06 guards.

Personally I am not familiar with L5 flares. But our design is to fit on the normal C5 wheel well perfectly. You can try it and if it won't fit for your L5 flares then you can return it.

Yes, it will be available in Carbon Fiber. We won't stock the Carbon but we can take your order and specially make it for you.

For those who want/need splash guards, these are the best I've seen.

I think they look good. May have to get a few sets.

MY rear fenders and fascia could use some thing like that to fill in the gap.

The only thing I don't like with the C6 ones is that they are made and molded out of a gray in color material and then coated in black paint. Well the only problem with them being painted black is that the rocks that get kicked up while your driving chip the paint and then you see the gray material underneath that it is made from.

The factory ones are made out of a flexible plastic and aren't painted so the can't chip. Just for all your information.

You should still have my Credit Card information from the September order. If you need it again, please just let me know.

Thanks.

I'm seriously considering these for both front and back. We just got back from a trip out to oaks and this is what I found on my new molded in brake ducts this morning....



I guess my fat front tires are kicking up some stones... Either that or I'm going to buy some clear tubing at HD and make my own temp stone guard for the duct lip.....

WOW! That's serous.

Once you use our Splash Guard, definitely it will never happen again.
