I'm well pleased with those from the GM parts counter. Had them installed before driving the car home the first time.

ACS (slightly better protection) and EOS. I've had both, plus the GM extended splash guards, which were inadequate once I installed aftermarket wheels that stuck out more.

I like the OEM splash guards because they don't stick out as far as some of the aftermarket splash guards that - to me - start making them look like mud flaps.

I bought them too. Very happy with the design and carbon flash paint job is flawless. Was seriously considering ACS’s but decided they looked too much like mud flaps on a truck.

I bought/used a set of the EOS (Extreme) branded ones painted carbon flash. When I received them, one of them had a broken tab on it, but the company sent out a new one right away...so I'm very happy with them (the guards and the company)!

Depends on the look you are wanting. With the Body Color Accents I went with RPI painted and love the look.
