GM splash guard thoughts

Natro33 · 07-14-2017, 06:32 PM

Hello everyone. I ordered a set, front and back, of GM factory splash guards. Mainly for the rocks slinging from the front tires. Do you think it would look odd to only install the fronts? I've attached a picture with and without the backs. What do you think?

Nope, I have 1LE in same color and only did front.

I don't think that front only looks bad at all but I do have to say that prefer the look of both front and back on the car.

I did F&R, I think they blend into car, and a nice add-on, my 2 cents

Yeah, I did front and rear too...looks weird with just the front IMO. Plus my 5th gen had its share of rock chips in back too

What the hell is that pin stripping and painted lower rear quarter panel? That looks really slick. Nice subtle touch.

Ya, Thanks, The lower rocker front to back (was to much red, made the doors look like semi doors) Painted and pin stripped black metallic, same with hood strips.

@brettman,

Looks great.

I would install it front ans rear looks more in balance in my opinion.

I like the front and rear, as stated above cleaner look IMHO. Has anyone tried to install these with the GM rocker panels and the GM rear extended sides. My guess is they would have to be modified. Anyone ??

Yes, as stated in GM paperwork, will not work (no bolt on, too bad) with rocker. Even some aftermarket states the same. Unless you MODIFY.

Where did you folks order the GM splash guards? Thanks!

Soleil · 07-16-2017, 01:57 PM

I ordered mine from Rodgers as they ship for free within US. I have to ship them afterwards to Germany and I like to have OEM parts.
