As much as I don't want to put mudflaps on I am getting some paint damage behind the rear wheels......Does anyone have suggestions for a low profile set. All the ones I've seen are way to big and look awful.

I just ordered the husky ones. I have seen them on and I think they look good. I just want to keep the junk off the side of my car. Easy install too

The best ones i've seen are the painted GM ones. Get the Contoured ones and they fit right in with the body lines of the vehicle. There one of the few that look decent, I don't even notice mine anymore

justgurn, I like the idea of the stick on protection instead of the flaps......Are they noticeable? I'm also wondering if they can handle the beating of a full season of salty roads in New England.......

Just installed the painted GM ones. I live up in Canada where the roads are slushy and muddy at this time of year and I hope this will make a difference.
I just installed the rear ones tonight and I am waiting for the front ones to come in. Once they do I will post some pics. The rear ones look good though, I'm pleasantly surprised and I hate mud flaps almost as much as I hate washing my vehicle every time I drive it.

I just installed the painted gm ones from gmpartsdirect. Couldn't be happier. They blend right in with the vehicle and do a great job of keeping the sides protected from rocks, dirt, mud, etc. Install was a breeze. I was a little apprehensive before ordering b/c i liked the look without them, but now that they're on, i have no regrets.

do these fit with the factory running boards, or did you just buy the rears?

Yes they make two models for the front flaps...one for LTZ and one for the other models both will work with running boards..I put the fronts on my LT with runners (cause I was getting soo much road crap kicked up on the runners) this solved that problem without looking like the "old mans rig"...I was ready to trim them up for style...but didn't need too- they blend quite nicely. I got the front for $41 shipped on ebay factory GM ones.
