Altec Splash Guards Installed

Well 3/4 installed. I needed to get some new 3M tape for my passenger side cove screen - it's coming loose. So I didn't want to put on splash guard just to have it in the way tomorrow when I go get some tape.

Anyway some pics cause this thread would be worthless without pics!

Overall a nice fit, so I'm happy. Nice color match too.

Were they already painted, or did you have to have that done?

Are those scratches on the rear?

I like some of the others better, but they're ok. Tool box reflection, not scratches, is my guess.

I like them, I started out with those on mine (just the rear) then I decided to put the C6 Z06 on the rears and stock C6 on the fronts.
Looks good, looking forward to seeing more pics. Show us some pics of your headlights too.

Not to bad but I agree with the others regarding the rear "flaps." I went the C6 route as well for front and rears.

Looks by the debris on the floor there need to be a significant amount of drilling.

I had a set of these on my C4. Now I’m looking for a set for my 2007. Can’t seem to find them. Did they stop making them or go out of business? I will try Altec since I could not remember the name before I saw these. 🤞

Not against flaps. Especially on the front of the car. The rockers take a beating on these cars and look sand blasted if not protected.

What I did was go with black non drill flaps that way they protect and they blend in with the tires.

There is no real aero issues as your tires are the biggest aero issue on your car. If you have the flap out enough to make an issue you put them too far out.
