One of you GS people should get the GCA fronts for base, do whatever slight mod might be necessary for it to work for you and then figure bout how to mass produce. You'd clean up as EVERYONE with a GS seems to want them!!!

I put the factory splash guards on and I still got pits in rockers and mirror housings, but I drive the car on the Interstate. Guess I shoulda put on clear as well. good luck and keep us informed...

Has anyone with a GS / ZO6 buy the base C6 front splash guards like shown in the photos here .. and tried to modify them to fit the front fender of the GS / ZO6?

Jeeeze, there can't be that much difference in the rear section of the front wheel wells ?

I have had the GM splash guards for 2 years now. Look great and functional. Fit perfectly. A DIY job for sure!

I also liked the GM splash guards, which help and don't stand out too much, however I wanted a bit more protection on the rear and replaced them with the short Z06 style splash guards from APsis. Now I have the look and protection I wanted.
