Default C6 Splash Guard Install Question

I was thinking of cutting the rear guards flush with the body and using Ed's (pipedreams) rear splash guard clips, to secure the guard in addition to molding tape. In addition, putting a small screw underneath.
What do you think?

Is this on a C5 or C6? I see you have a 2008 C6 listed in your garage and avatar but your question is posted in the C5 forum.

It is for a C5 2004. I was going to buy a new camaro for my wife but found a 04 corvette convertible with 13,500 miles for 25K. Cheaper insurance and taxes and it's a vette!

Got any kind of link to the splash guard clips you mention? I'd like to put splash guards on mine but I'm not wild about drilling into the body panels to do so.

Send Ed a note: leeacustoms@optonline.net
They are $5 for 4 clips. I bought 2 sets, (8) clips. You can pay via paypal.
