What are the better splash guards that actually work?

ACS seems to be the go-to for most. I have them and like them. I have the XL on the front and standard size on the rear.

I agree that ACS makes a really good splash guard for the C7.

I went with the GM version (not as wide as the ACS version) but combined them with a set of side skirts and have found the combo does a great job protecting the sides of the car.

Apsis USA, they have a good line of interior/exterior parts for a C7, not the cheapest but they do make quality parts

Not into how far the others stick out.I have had GM'S on since day one.47k miles.Will admit car has a handful of chips on the rear brake vent.My GS is driven and enjoyed.
When it is park time.The truck flap look is out.
For a couple chips with zero PPF. WORTH IT.
Not a Museum piece

GM'S are ample.The stealth looks better than the off road look. How much for the truck flaps 😂
Actually painted the fronts Carbonflash to blend better.

One advantage of the ACS splash guards is they extend lower protecting the front edge of the side skirts. At least they did when I bought them 8 years ago.

GM regular ones here. The bigger ones may be better for the wide bodies.
