Thanks Dave... I thought about that but heard too many stories how you could see the seam... I am going to get some cleartastic for the inside of the guards to protect them so that should give me some experence with it...

Is the color off a bit? In one of the pics it looks different but in others it looks the same. They sure do fit nicely though!

Looks good, you might want to get that cleartastic film and put it on the inner side of the fender guards so they don't get chipped up.

Those are the only "mud flaps" that I would even consider for my car. They follow contour lines, serve a purpose, update the car and look terrific. Well done on a unique beautiful Vette.

Looks good Wayne. I like the rears but to be honest, I'm not feeling the fronts but I understand why you did them so it makes sense.
