Default Stingray mud flaps

I'm a new owner of a Cyber Gray Stingray and notice how much road debris is thrown from the wide tires.

Does anyone have a recommendation on mud/splash guards, I'm looking for something subtle but that actually works.

Any help is appreciated.

Attached is a picture of my car with my new 360 Forged comp5 wheels

Nice looking car.

Go to CORVETTE MODS, 1-888-784-6921

C7 Painted splash guards, GM parts, cost $209.99 free shipping.

I have 4 coming in any day. Better looking then flaps, look at 2012GS same splash guards.

The excessive debris thrown unto the side of the fender must be a Z51 problem. I have not noticed excessive debris on my base car. Quite the contrary, I was just thinking how this design deeps most of the road dirt off the fender.

GM Parts House here on the forum. Gene is the owner and has threads in the vendor sales forum.

The GM accessory version come in black and look 100% OEM but add some extra coverage. They will blend with your color fine and disappear. I have them on my White coupe and they really aren't noticed unless you tell someone that you added them.

The tires are the same width, diameter and offset so debris should not matter whether the car is Z51 or not.

Although the Z51 tires are a bit stickier compound so that may contribute to it.

Tread pattern might contribute also. Go figure?

Not a bad price, considering the bare black plastic ones from GM are $120 or so from one of the forum GM parts dealers. That's what we have on our Night Race Blue convertible.

If buying the side skirts can these still be installed?

Wheels look amazing... nice to see a high class wheel on a high class car. What sizes are they? Brushed centers with a polished lip?
