Splitter and side rails
I know there are several companies producing splitters and side rails for the new C7. I am primarily wanting them from a functional standpoint of helping to reduce stone chips but also think they add visually to the car. Does anyone have recommendations on designs that may be better than others for rocker protection? I would want them in either carbon fiber or carbon flash and a product that is easy to install that requires NO drilling or modifications to install. Thanks in advance.

A favorite? Nope...they all are high quality and install nicely....but they are shaped differently. I have Lashway street series as they are local, and I was able to refurb some Blem pieces back to perfect condition and install myself.
and I like their look:

Glen......do you feel they add any effective stone protection when coupled with GM splash guards?

yes,. no doubt...but I have no experience with winter weather - just rain and major highways...but they do get dirty by themselves....had to come up with a way to clean them easily between washes, as they get filthy a day after washing...

6-8 oz of rinseless solution (always left over from a rinseless wash in a milk bottle) - enuf to soak/ wet the mop - a BBQ mini mop off Amazon, soak the rails and splitter - cordless leaf blower to blow them clean/dry - no bending over at all...
