Default They Are Back ** The Original Pipedreams Splash Guards**

They are here in stock and are the best (hands down) selling protection on the forum. The reviews are AAA+++ over and over again. Don't wait for mystery products that will never happen or cost 5 x's my price. By that time you will have destroyed your car. Buy from a vendor that cares about you and has delivered time after time

Other molded Z06 like guards are rigid and will damage even more then your cars paint will. A guard needs to be made of a flexible resilient material like mine

40 sets in stock ready to ship tomorrow. LINK TO ORDER

For those that don't know the story, I developed a set of splash guards for my car over 18 months ago. All that saw them love the way they disappeared once on the car. One thing lead to another and they became the hottest item on the forum. Simple to install (no screws) and worked with all colors with there satin black finish. They were produced from a material called duraflex. Duraflex is designed from the start as a splash guard material for extreme hot/cold and guaranteed for life. The company making the duraflex closed shop and I could not find a material I would approve to replace it, so I was out of business. I could have made them out of cheap plastics but that is not how I work.

Well duraflex is back and so are my original splash guards. Due to the popularity of my design others copied them but made the fronts shorter (to save on material) and from a cheap plastic that often had an undercoating on them The copies sold for about $5 less but you get what you pay for

In about a week I will have the first 36 sets built and ready for shipping. I am taking pre orders at the special price of $49.99 + shipping.

LINK TO ORDER

You get both the front and rear set and a full page of instructions with pictures

YOU NEED THESE

If you have a C6 you already realized that those massive sticky tires are constantly throwing rocks and other debris, including tar and road oils on your $50k paint job.

If you don’t take steps to protect the paint you will have a sandblasted / rock chipped finish in as little as a few 1000 miles. These are made from Long Life Duraflex (satin black finish, works with any color) These attach with no modifications, drilling or tape.

They attach using three of the factory fasteners in minutes in the front, and two speed clips on the rear (no special tools needed). The result is the most effective protection you can buy.

They have been designed to protect yet provide a clean and almost invisible install (they are even hard to see in pictures so I had to over expose them just so you could see them)

These guards rock!!! (or actually no rocks ). Ed's service is the best, he's a great guy. Stick with the original, they work great, easy to install, and arent even noticable.

Are the speed clips metal? Are they corrosion resistant?
