This was maybe the second after-market purchase I made for my car and I don't regret putting them on. Of course they blend in even better on a black Vette.

I guess its somewhat of a trade off, you want protection, well, you have to give up a little on the beauty, you want beauty, well, you're gonna get a few rock chips...
Either way, there is no denying that a Corvette looks great, even with the army boots...

Ed's guards are worth every penny...and NOBODY notices them unless you point them out. I didn't have these on my C5, and my rockerpanels looked like they had a rash in less than 5 months.

I put Ed's mud flaps on my vette before I drove it home from the dealership. They look very nice on. To tell you the truth you can't even notice them. I know some guys are saying mud flaps are for trucks. but I did not spend $58K to have stone chips on my Vette.
www.nakidparts.com is the place to order them.
I ordered extra clips with mine just in case.

Gotta say I was skepticle when I saw these for the first time yesterday. I just put them on a few minutes ago and they really look nice. Two tips: make sure you bend the teeth on the rear clips in, they will go on much easier. Also, to make it a snap for the fronts, turn your wheels all the way in the direction of the side of the car you are working on. Thanks Ed for a quality product!
