Has anybody tried the Corvette splash shields

CaptainDavid · Oct 17, 2012

Has anybody tried the Corvette wheel well splash shields. They look good and look like they might fit the Viper. This of course would eliminate the unavoidable gravel blast to the painted part of the wheel wells. I have a Vette next to my Gen 4, dont want to disassemble the vette to see.

BTW I'm aware of Jon B's splash guard.

Thanks Guys

( finally got my white Mamba back, but its a 2010)

Congrats on your new Viper!!

Please post your findings on the gravel guards.

How hard could it be to take one of the shields off of the vette? That way you would know and then you could let the rest of us know.

OK stay tuned It will be tomorrow at least

Thanks Steve for all your help and advise..

Not sure what Jon B is selling, but Dan at Viper Specialty has both front and rear sets for a Viper.

I have Dan's from viper specialty and IMO they're perfect. I got them while planning for my 1,000 mile adventure to VOI, they are serious items, minimally invasive to the look of the car and provide a surprising amount of protection. Haven't tried any other solutions though. I'm sure all would be interested in your findings.

Me too. The do the job and look like a normal part of the car. You don't even notice them.

If anyone is interested, I have this:

that I will most likely not use anymore since I got the carbon fiber replacements. I used them for a couple of days but lost the Chrysler push pins... They fit very well and are very low key.

I checked my Grand Sport convertible last night and I don't see how they would fit on my Gen IV Viper. Maybe a base Corvette splash guards would be different.

carbon fiber replacements. I believe I got them from Viper Parts of America? They were over six hundred bucks though...
