Splash Gaurds

Has anyone installed splash gaurds on thier C6 that do not look tacky or take away from the car. Coming out of winter we have an issue with "cinders", small beads of gravel on the road. They will last a few months, I would rather not chip the QP's. I have a 07, Z51, black.

Pipedreams "Nakidparts" splash guards are not offensive and are easy to install.

I am very happy with Pipedreams splash guards. I like the way they look and find them to be very effective. Great service also.

I'm not crazy about the way they look, but they are hardly noticeble and their benefit outweighs the look. I storongly recommend them.
It would be nice if someone manufactured a Z06 type that required no modification and just installed using the existing push pins.

The Pipedreams splash guards look fine on a VR car. They are hardly noticeable on mine, but they do what they are supposed to do.
