Looks cool! As OEM as a mud guard mod gets!

Has the tape held up since you first installed them?

No problems with the tape. Solid as when I installed them.

Sorry to disagree, but I tried those first and they do offer protection but they are simply ugly. Especially the body colored ones.

Which models did you get short or long? (in the image)
It is hard to tell from the image, do you have them on the front as well?
Are those OEM size wheels or larger (if so what size)?
Have you done any track time with them on? If so did they help protect the 1/4 panels from marbles effectively?

They look good on your car!

Stock ZO6 Modified

Small guards from PipeDreams on front

Stock wheels, BFG KDW II's one size over stock front and rear
Have you done any track time with them on? If so did they help protect the 1/4 panels from marbles effectively?
No track time with them but they've been on for almost a year and around 12,000 miles and they offer complete. protection
