I’m anxious to see the full set of splash guards offered by ACS, EOS and AGM. Should be available from each of the vendors by the end of February.

If the guards are painted, would they not rapidly become an eyesore as the get chipped? The factory ones are a forgiving black plastic, so they do not show the battle scars.

Fronts only for me. I have no need for the rears.

I agree, That is what I did on my C7, got them from ACS, which IMO do the best job of protecting. Now for the Stingray, they force you to buy all four which I didn't like doing. Maybe it won't be that way for the Z06, hopefully they will again give owners a choice.

Although I have PPF behind the rear wheels, I’ve had no marks there in 1800 miles of Chicago suburb driving and that’s with 20MM spacers. The impending ACS 4-pack looks a little overdone to me, almost like mud flaps, but still waiting for better pics to decide.

The Paragon fronts will take the lion’s share of concern with spray back to the rockers and side intakes. Not sure yet which one I’ll go with.

Look at the "Install Instructions " tab. Pretty good idea of what it is involved in changing the rear guards or adding the screens that the vendor sells.
This may offer a solution to those who want screens but the vendor did not build them in.

Will this product potentially prevent stone chips or is it merely cosmetic?

I’ll clarify. I meant the screens.

Nothing new beyond Paragon’s fronts only. EOS should release there’s 02/20 and I’m guessing ACS and AGM will be join them.
