I looked on the internet for these. Found a few options. I wanted something more modern looking, than the ordinary splash/mud guard and I did not want to buy the C6 guards and modify them as sometimes that doesn't end well. I was looking for a bolt-on solution. Check out Apsis. They are expensive BUT they look pretty nice. I just bought a set of 4 in matte black. They also come in carbon fiber. They are on the forum. Owner's name is Jersey Wu.

I put on a set of the "Stealth Splash Guards". Easy to install, and you really have to look to notice them.

When I had my C5 I also used a set of Stealth Splash Guards that I bought from RPI Designs. Inexpensive protection and they mount with no drilling required.

I got the Stealths many years ago and sprayed them silver with Duplicolor vinyl spray to match my car. They work great and are look like part of the car, truly unnoticeable unless you look for them. Truly Stealth. No need to spend a genormous amount of money on something so simple as this.

I have the C6 splash guards and had them on my Z as well. The 'dremeling' needed for a custom fit is not much, and one end, don't remember if it was front or back almost needs no mods at all. Yes you have to drill some holes. I body paint matched for both cars and they look great but don't look like they belong on a Jeep. I thought I had a better pic, but you should get the idea.

I would stay away from the Altecs. At least on the front. They have a tendency to high center on speed bumps etc. Because they have to be mounted with screws they can do quite a bit of damage to the lower rocker panel. I have been much happier since I got them off.

There's no drilling holes or any body mods with the Stealths and the mounts are very secure and unnoticeable.
