Whattya think about installing Mudflaps?
I purchased my 2000 C5 from a private seller.
I noticed there are several scratches way down below the doors and think they must have been casued by the front tires kicking rocks up.
My question is will mudflaps help prevent this, or are they really more for appearance?
If you recommend them, do you have a recommendation where to
purchase mudflaps?
Thanks!
Rob

I use them on mine...in the front use the same holes and screws that hold in the inner fendors in the back I use paper clips.
3m does not come off and it will nick and look like poopie (IMO) cleartastic is the way to go it comes off easy and goes on easy if you want to go this route.
I use cleartastic with the mudflaps...just to let you know this is only to go to shows then I take them off
