They are awesome and a must have on a widebody C7.

They do add an extra measure of protection for the sides of the car. Not a bad thing to install on your car.

Added the GM guards. Didn't feel the XL were necessary. Anything that stick out past the body should protect regardless of the width.
Either way, can't go wrong.

car is clear wrapped I still put them on.

I would put the xl on a widebody. They actually look OEM. They would look goofy on a stingray.

had the enhanced and was still getting some marks and rocks up in front of my rear spoiler. Installed the XL and love the look and haven’t had any rocks hit my rear spoiler on my Z. To me, that speaks volumes and is totally worth it. I love the look....

Highly recommend that you get a pair for the front and back. Super simple to install, adds extra layer of chip protection. I think they look great.

Ditto on the fronts being to big and protrude to far out. That said it’s all about what type of roads you frequent. I have owned (3) C7’s, all had side skirts, none sustained any side shots.
