Default 07 GM mud flaps

It's time to prepare for winter. Does anyone have pictures of the molded front and rear mud flaps? I really don't like putting them on. If they look too bad I'm gonna get the flatter ones that have the one contour in them and take them off each spring.

I would love to see GM make a conservatively sized molded one that is body color. (Escalades are too big also)

Here's a not so good pic of rears.

I put 'em on mine and they look good. Better than the flat ones IMO.

I don't mind mine because I have a black hoe. Here are a couple pics.

I ordered some on Tuesday, should be here this weekend. I really didn't want them but with the wider tires I put on the rocker panels and front side of the running boards were getting a little trashed. Am interested to see how they look with the white.

schorner,

Are those splash guards the OEM GM brand? Or are they aftermarket?

It looks like you put the rear ones on Too low in the pic. Was that on purpose?

OOPS, optical illusion. Saw the shadow and it looked like a gap between inner edge and bottom of fender.

It was overcast this morning. I saw that too and had to take a second look.

The only issue I ran into was how the front ones fit around the running board. I had to trim the passenger's side flap a little around the running board to get it to seat against the body.

Thanks for the info. I'm surprised you had to cut it. They make a specific one just for people with running boards and it doesn't fit right.?

I'm gonna order mine now.

BTW: I have 3M tape to put between body and molded guard. Looks like it might be a good idea with that much overlap of the side of the body.
