Default Splash Guards

Are there any better options on splash guards other than factory? In terms of protection or aesthetics?

I'm sure that even as I write this there are aftermarket companies selling C8 splash guards right now. But the other option is check out several GM wholesale parts dealers and you can but the same GM splash guards for less money and they're easy to install yourself.

Default Accessory GM work look fine

Install all four in 30 mins no wheel removal required. Watch you tube videos. Buy from Cultag save money. Good luck

Default Just the Facts

Several aftermarket splash guards out there. At double the money. For such a humble accessory, less is more. Less visible less money. Get the OEM's from a Forum vendor for $125-150. One poster says 30 min to install. I'd think that leaves time to have a congratulatory beer as well.

Not to steal the thread but do the factory splash guards interfere with the 5VM aero package? Or can they both be installed together?

There's also a few vendors that'll take the GM factory splash guards and sand them down smooth to paint to your C8's body color if you want them to blend in.
