Modified APSIS C7 Splash Guards

I've always had APSIS USA splash guards for my Corvettes , and was disappointed they didnt make them for the Camaro. After reaching out to Jersey they couldn't guarantee fitment. Did some poking around and found they have a somewhat similar wheel well. The fiberglass the splash guards are made of can be heated and allowed to become workable, so I took the chance and bought a set of C7 basic splash guards in Flat Black(still $250)..

It took time to heat up with the heat gun, measure, trim, and form, but eventually after they were painted Mosiac Black, I think they are really the best looking ones out there.

Nice wheels!! Are those the F10 HRE rims? I was looking at those also. But with the garnet red tintcoat not sure if the bronze would go well. I would think the satin black would be the color or choice for my car

FF11s in IPA($500 upcharge)..I also had my buddy ceramic coat them. Wheel weights hadba hard time sticking lol. Had to run strips of Clear GORILLA tape over them to make sure they wouldn't come off again.

Bronze would look killer on your Red Z..

They look Killer in person in the sunlight too.

Rear Guards

A-A-Ron do you think those same splash guards could be molded to fit the rear? I have the ACS on the front but didn't care for their rear ones>

Not sure. I got these to move decently, but they can cool and crack too, so the working can't be too extreme. I dont know the curve of the rear ones. APSIS makes rear ones that would probably be easier to work with. They wont guarantee fitment, so it's a chance you have to take. Just keep waving a heat gun till it gets nice and warm. Trimming was required in several directions too.

APSIS is the best looking in my opinion. They were killer on my C7 Z

Those r the best ones I’ve seen. I wish they made a pair for Camaros. I don’t think I’m skilled enough to do what you have done.
