OEM Splash Guards
The C7 OEM splash guards are soooooooo much better than the C6. The C6 required drilling and was such a pain to get right. The C7 takes no more than thirty minutes. Remove one bolt per splash guard. Pop off the existing part. Pop on the new part. Reinstall bolt.
Now if they would just make them standard equipment(like they should have all along!).

The best part is there is no requirement to remove any of the wheels to do the install. I did not even have to turn the front wheels inboard. I have never experienced this easy of an install on any car!!

I was very pleased that they were so easy to remove/install.
