C6 Splash Guards
I'm looking for splash guards for my C6 that are shaped or molded, not the flat mud flaps that just hang down. I don't care for the looks of the flat ones I see in most of the Corvette parts catalogs. My wife says she has seen some before on other Vettes. Can anyone help? Thanks

I got my Z06 Style Long Splash Guards from www.apsisusa.com. They have that "designed for look" rather than that "added on look." They do a superb job of protecting the rocker panels from road rash and other paint damage. My 08 coupe is a daily driver but looks like it just came off the assembly line yesterday. Thanks in part to the splash guards and me washing it every other day.

I think the "Trucker Mudflaps" can look ok on darker cars, To me most flaps on a light color car takes away from it a bit, IMO.
To each there own. if you like the GM ones then thats what you should get thru Gene. I might in the future as well.

after having my GM guards from Gene installed for some time now, I can say I am 100% happy. big enough to stop trash from hitting the rockers and quarter panels but not so big to be noticed by most. look like they came on the car.

I did the same thing. Went with Altec molded guards. The first time you go over a speed bump and nearly tear the fender off of the car you'll change your mind. Pipedreams is the only one for me.

I previously had the Altec guards - they hang MUCH lower than the GM ones. I replaced Altec with GM - GM is far superior. Essentially the same coverage (actually enhanced coverage of the wheel well edge area) with an integrated look. You'll never drag them on the ground or another obstacle.
