Ordered body colored splash guards

I got the front and rear the genuine Chevy accessories. They should be here early next week. I will post up before and after pictures.

I just did not like the look of the flat black ones.

Put them on today. Including taking out all the tools, reading the instructions 2x, install, clean up was about 2 hours. I would day 2 out of 5 for hardness. It took longer to remove and reinstall the wheels than installing the guards. Fitment is great. Note to anyone buying these, you need a rivet tool for the fronts.

Looks spiffy and the install job is nice, too

I had these GM splash guards on my previous Camaro, but then I wanted moar powa', then wider wheels/tires, and these really only provide enough protection with stock width tires.

FYI: If I had to do it again I could do it in an hour or a tad over.

I installed mine last weekend, without taking the wheels off. It took about an hour. The fronts were easy. The rear were a real pain. If I was going to do it again, I’d probably take the rear wheels off.

What color did you get for your ABM? Did you get the painted black? or Flat Black.

Curious because I have the Crush, and they dont seem to be available in my color, and I know the ABM is a rare color.

I got arctic blue to match the car. I was very surprised to see it was available.

These look great but will they work on a ZL1? The rear diffuser of the ZL1 continues along the side of the bumper and the sideskirts also stick out a bit more in the front. Do they sell compatible guards for ZL1?

No, as far as I know, the GM body color splash guards are not compatible with the ZL1, you'll need to go aftermarket (RPI Designs, ZL1 Addons, ACS Composite etc.)
