Yes I was wondering if your company is planning on making Molded Fender
Guards for the 2005 Corvette? When looking for Splash Guards or Fender
Guards it looks like your company is the main company out there that makes
them for vettes. If your company in planning or has successfully created
them I would greatly love to have a pair. If your company has created them I
would love to know were to buy them or if you all are planning on creating
them if you could let me know when they may be on the market.....

Thanks,
Cameron Langley

Wonder if they will look like the new Z06 fender well type or just simple add-on shorties like import cars?

I'll go with chips. For my taste, splash guards are like wearing rubbers.

Now is the time to complain. They may do something for you if you complain before you have 12K miles or 12 months on the car.

If they don't look like truck mud flaps I will consider them. I have been saying that since day one this car (my Z51) picks up and throws rocks like crazy. Much more than my C5 ever thought of. Not many C6 owners on this forum that had previous C5s seen to notice this problem however. Strange..

I hear them hit the under carriage all the time. Please post a picture when you have more info. Also I would like to know if they can be installed with the existing fasteners or if you have to drill into the fender wells.
