I bet when you figure in the additional assembly line steps to install X labor costs = 4 expensive parts the the majority of buyers would not appreciate or want to pay for.
The part is absolutely identical save a mini pie slice of extra plastic. Same mounting snaps that seat in the same slots in the same way, same attachment tab at the bottom, same screw w/collar. The install on the assembly line would be zero different.

I got 'em ... easy to install ...but; the top tip of the splash guard does not come us as high as the OEM guard leaving a small hole at the top where those little tire imbedded rocks can enter... On my car it seems that the soundproofing, cloth type material was not cut as carefully as it should have been. I easily closed the hole, (after removing the splash guard), and attached Velcro to the soundproofing material and the fender. Velcro is a little darker but not noticeable unless you are looking for it. Much better than a hole!
Do they seem to actually help with stopping road rash on the rear quarters and rockers?
They help, but they didn't stop all the road rash on certain areas. I joined in with our club driving event on the 3 Twisted Sisters, (Texas hill country) and encountered lots of loose gravel. The rocker panels in front of the rear wheels got hammered. The rear fascia just behind the rear wheels also took a pounding.
I'll probably add some side skirts to help protect the rocker panel area.
Less spirited driving in that situation would have help too.
I've heard: undo one bolt, slide out the old part, slide in the new part, replace bolt. Is that it? Sound too easy for a Chevy part install...
I'm way short of a DIY mechanic and these were simple for me. Some water to clean the area, towel to dry, 7mm socket, and good to go. Instructions say you need a plastic molding removal tool, but you can pop off the old part with your hand. Takes 30 minutes including the admiration of your work time.
Gene, do you have the front and rear splash guards in stock? How long from time of order to getting out the door?
It all really depends on the availability at the time you order. In other words, if I stock 20 sets and then I am all of a sudden out you may have to wait a short time. I ask that you wait 2-3 business days for us to get them and 24-48 hours to ship.

I called GMParts # Monday, didn't talk with Gene, but ordered them and they arrived at the museum today for my upcoming delivery. Much faster than I anticipated. Got FedEx delivery alert today. Good service IMO!
Got mine from GM Parts House along with my Stingray sill plates. Literally a "snap" to install! I'm sure it took me longer to get down on the ground and get back up than the actual install for each piece! I'm not the fastest around with a complete knee replacement and a rod in my back
There are two part numbers for the GM splash guards.
Front guards: 22935635 Wholesale cost is $63.75 for the pair.
Rear Guards: 22935639 Wholesale cost is the same as the fronts.
Thanks for the link to order and the referral! We would be happy to help all out of you out with your GM splash guards.
I received my splash guards today, they install in minutes. I really think they are needed. GM parts house is a good reliable company to do business with. Seems to be the same material as the original, but they extend about an inch wider.

I would like to get these, but I'm getting the Lashway carbon fiber side skirts and front splitter. I don't think these would look good with the other additions......

I just ordered their splitter last week too, but I ordered the carbon flash. Did not order the side skirts.
