Default Apsis C6 type splash guards-Quality?

Has anyone received a set of Apsis C6 type splash guards configured to fit C5's. Early on I purchased a set and the surface condition was so irregular I returned them (which was no problem, very good customer service by Apsis). I believe it may have been a set of very early ones. Are they any better today? Thanks in advance, Ron

I saw a set at the NCRS in Central Florida last weekend and thought they looked good. Heavy duty feel and the finish was textured but not rough.

I purchased a set for the rear & am very pleased with them. I also purchased a set for the front & the fit was not good enough for me & I ended up giving them away.

At $100/wheel they should fit.

I like the look and function of them but for what they cost I haven't bought any.

That's just too much $$$ for what you get.

I tend to agree - just wish they didn't cost so much.
