Bill-V8V Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I bought a set last year and finally had the time to put them on :willy: The Z06 and GS already have protection on the corners but not the standard coupe But I really like the look of these, they will keep the road rash off the corners and not look out of place The front pair took about 15 minutes to install but for the rear ones you need to pull the wheels off. But that did gave me a chance to see how good of a job the turbo stick has been doing, I was really surprised to see just how clean they were. I did do a pass with SHR and followed with MSS anyways but I forgot to take pictures. It was around 100 degrees in my garage so I was rushing a little near the end :help: I put a coat of BG and BW on the other day too Now it's time for a nap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has it even seen a puddle? lol Chris It's seen them but I don't go through them It is really for the sand, those corners take a beating and mine has less than 6000 miles on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks GM Part # 19170239 I got them from http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/ I just tried searching their site and didn't find anything. GCA made them for GM. I'll search around to see if I can find them.

Bill-V8V Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 The part number has changed since I bought them, it is 19170234 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Looks good! I had to put the same ones on mine when I put the LG Challenge wheels on it as they were just a little wider than stock. I think they actually enhance the looks of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-V8V Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 For $100 it is well worth it. I had a set of cheap ones on the rear and they did the job but they didn't look as good as these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
