bensee 0 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I'm picking up my new spark 1lt Monday and I would like to get the factory splash guards to prevent tar and rock chips but the website shows they only work on the LS model. is this correct? I can't see why they won't work. Link to post Share on other sites
Eric1984 16 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Isn't the body of the LT and LS the same? I don't see why they wouldn't work. Link to post Share on other sites
bensee 0 Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 installed today not sure why the Chevy site lists the splash guards as LS only they work fine on my LT Link to post Share on other sites
iBuddhaiMan 2 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Is it worth it? Notice it staying any cleaner? I was carless when I bought mine and couldn't wait for a different color so I have black and it always looks dirty Link to post Share on other sites

When I lived in Chicago, it helped to keep SOME of the dirty/muddy snow from plastering the car. Now I live in Florida, and do not see the need for splash guards. If you buy the factory items, it requires drilling holes to mount the guards. Link to post Share on other sites
Fire Spark 13 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Generic mud flaps usually do a much better job but they aren't exactly pretty or aerodynamic. Link to post Share on other sites
James 4 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) I just put rally armour mud flaps on mine and it was pretty easy. I used existing holes and a zip tie or 2 haha they were only I think 30$ and I think they look good. Edited April 12, 2017 by James ZMMMMMMM 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The factory flaps are puny, and less functional because they are smaller. However smaller and contoured flaps will be more aerodynamic with less air resistance.

James 4 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Yea if your going for aerodynamic these are not the way to go. But these might be alittle better on protection. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm on a lot of dirt roads too when I go kayaking so I'm sure I'll encounter mud James 1 Link to post Share on other sites
