I purchased a set from Pipedreams a few weeks ago. He sells the best ones if you decided to order any. They are barely visible and easy to install. They are great paint protection for the rocker panel/lower car area. Do a search and you will find a ton of positive opinions and some pictures of them installed. If you're on the fence about it-- GET THEM!!

OK, I have to play devil's advocate here. In all of these splash guard threads one of the most prevailing type comments is:
"Put them on as soon as I got the Vette. They work great, and saved my paint."
How exactly does one know it saved the paint? Or put another way, how do you know the paint wouldn't look the same if they were never installed?
It's obvious a lot of you aren't willing to take the chance, but it is food for thought.
I haven't decided yet whether to use them when my car gets here, but the self-fulfilling prophecy argument isn't helping the decision.
cadguymark had an excellent observation above on the angle of the photos. I have seen some pictures from the other angle, and they are kind of nasty looking.
