Default Molded Splash Guard for LS1, like Z06 Vette...

Does anyone make them or has anyone just made them themselves?

My little 295's throw crap all over and I'd like to get that a bit under control and something like what the Z06 has would look good but I havent seen it done on a Camaro or seen anything close.

^^What did you pay for your pieces George? I've been considering doing that to a set myself and then reproducing them in urethane...

There are a couple of auto parts stores in my area that sell the molded splash guards specifically made for Camaros............was thinking they might look good especially if you shoot them the same color of the car......

The drag race crowd could really use these also 6liter. I have rubber slung all over my car . I found factory one's on ebay but they just don't look tall enough. let me know if you figure something out.

Any tips on how to make these ourselves? Just buy ZR1 mudflaps and cut away until they fit or what? 6LE if you make these I'm buying them lol I need something because between rubber from the track getting all over my bumper or rock chips from driving down the gravel I need something to stop stuff flying off my tires!

I could do one of two things...

1) Sell you pre-cut ones to fit your car for $150 (my cost to buy is $125)

2) Sell you basically a reverse canard (like I make for the side splitters) for $75 raw aluminum, $100 powder coated satin black or textured black (to look like ABS) + shipping.

Who's down for what?

Who's going to be doing the cutting? Believe me when I say, it's not an easy task for you to do all yourself. Personally I don't think $25.00-$50.00 is worth the labor. I will be helping sscamed install his on his red SS in a couple of weeks at my place. You should stop by.

All day? If not drive down I think we'll start working sometime in the afternoon, and probably continue into Sunday.
