Mark,

Are the splash guards on the black SS in the pics your design, or are they modified Corvette splash guards?

Steve, they are modified Vette but I'm about to design a set similar (same material as my others just matching that shape more)...

Where are these for sale? I haven't seen these anywhere before


edit: n/m i found it..

I thought so, as I remember speaking with the owner through PM some time ago about them. Something like that I would be interested in.

I've been looking all over the site... Do you still offer the 6LE Package? I'd like the front, sides, and dual-plane rear guards.

Where can I get these? I do not have a CME, would there be a difference between CME vs Non CME?

(I plan on doing CME someday)

Yes, The ones on the car with the quad tip cme appear to be ABS plastic and are rounded. I wish 6LE can chime in and point us in the right direct for them! I WANT SOME! OK I NEED SOME!

Those are modified OEM Z06 mudflaps. Same as mine. They are 3 dimensional pieces and not flat panels.

Do you have some good pics of yours? Did you do the fronts too?

Honestly, it was a pain in the *** to get the curves to match up on the Trans Am since it has the notch towards the bottom. I used a paper template with an outline of the edge of the wheel well to get me started, but cut less than I needed and fine tuned from there.

What did you have to dremel? Did you have to trim for the exact body line? Are they solid ABS or hollow and so the bumper side needed to have bumper contour?

You have to trim the back edge where it meets the fender and bumper. It follows the Corvette lines which are much different than the Trans Am's. The part numbers for the splash guards are: 15818636 and 15818637. They should run about $100.
