Best Splash Guards
Just got my wide CCWs, the tires are out at the edge, I REALLY need to add some mud flaps. Best ones?

Stock GM flaps. Call Gene Culley. I did when I got my CCWs.

+1 more for the GM ones. They don't look added on at all, on any color car.

I had the small NakidParts flaps on the front when I first did the widebooty.
Got a deal on the GM front ones and they look much better and really are a nice addition, and they match the stock Z06 rears.
So add me to the chorus.

No, just pointing out your jinx.
To the OP. I have 11/10" wide CCW's on my stock fendered car and also have the GM
"splash guards" on mine. Looks great and does protect the bodywork.

Just got a GM set from Tom @ Fichtner. Took less than 1 hr to install and they look great in part because they are hardly noticeable.
