Default Apsis splash guards !

I bought Apsis splash guards (Old Style)They were a little expensive, "the old style", but like many thing in life, you get what you pay for. Once you feel them you can see that Jersey put a hell of a lot of work into C6 splash guards fit a C5 perfectly. Our goal was to have as little reveal at the point were the guards meet the quarter panels go.They come in black but I had mine painted by my friend who owns his own shop and has done many jobs for me over the years, But I digress, I ordered the splash guards and added some more 3M automotive double face tape, and they were painted and he let them sit for a week to make sure they were well dried. But then last week on Thursday we installed them, so what do you think ?

I think that they look very good. I like the looks of them being painted the same color as the car.
