Default Splash/Mud Guards

Good Day,

Looking for some suggestions on splash/mud guard vendors. I am mostly interested in how they look once installed and pics would do great. Most of the ones I have looked at seem to hang too low for the front or back and look like generic guards. So any and all comments/suggestions would be appreciated. Cheers!!!

I ran a set of the stealth splash guards from RPI Designs on both my ‘00 and ‘03 C5s. Reasonable cost, easy to install and did a good job protecting the sides of the car.

I also have RPI Stealth Splash Guards. Work great. Easy install. I don't even notice them.

Another vote for the RPIs. Inexpensive and do what they're supposed to do. Here's a pic of my rear splash guard. Wait, can't see it? Good.

I had the more visible splash guards screwed to my fenders when I bought my car many years back.

They were ripped off and have stayed off every since the day I brought the car home.

Thanks to all. Gonna order me the RPI stealth guards. If they seem too long going down then I can always modify it. Keeping it black on my Torch Red V. Cheers!!!
