Default C5 Coupe Splash Guards

Hi All,
I've got an 03 Anniversary coupe. The previous owner gave me a set of painted splash guards that he never installed on the car. I've search but have not been able to find photos of a C5 with splash guards. I just can't get a feel for how they would look and don't want to drill small mounting holes for the clips to install if they are not going to stay on. Any photos or thoughts on whether or not I should install these?

Effective but barely noticeable...Fronts use existing holes and screws. Rears are held on with clips - no drilling required. By the way, before anyone pukes, the rear brake ducts are functional!
