I agree with the majority about going with the GM splash guards. I've been happy with mine. It is a very easy DIY install.

GM should include these as an option code when ordering a new corvette.

I have the Z06 APIS ones on the front of my widebody. They do the job but I hate how they just terminate on the side of the fender instead of blending in under the lip like the rear ones do. It's an eye sore but better than repainting the rear quarters every other year. I guess it's the lesser of two evils.
