RE: splash guards
I'm running 255/35/20's on the front, so I think I probably get a little more splash than normal. I actually had more water splashed on the front than I got from the rear tires. Haha I had dirty water marks halfway back my door[:'(]Guess that's good motivation to wash the car often !!!

RE: splash guards
I just installed the shelby GT500 splashguards on my GT (which now has the CS rear buper cover) they look great in the textured black. I had to do it as my 255's were kicking up all type of road rubbish at my rear quarter, along with allot of dirty water since its been raining a little bit here in the my neck of the sunshine state. they were a perfect and easy fit. I got mine off ebay for $19. Dealer advised to order them would have cost me $36..so went with ebay. I like these ones better as they follow the curves of the rear much better and really work well without sticking out and being noticiable.

RE: splash guards
Anyone know if they Cobra splash guards can be mounted on the front wheelwell? Or would that look totally tacky? I think it might be better than risking shooting rocks and debris up the front fender and doors.

Don't know if they'll fit a V-6 yet. Anybody have pics?
I don't have much of a problem with everyday gutter water splashing up on the side from the FRONT tires. But I had a big problem when I used Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel. Even when I put on just a little it still would come off and get all over the sides of the car and the doors. It shows up as little brown specks. Some people say that Armorall comes off too. Never had a problem with that yet.

RE: splash guards
They dont fit the 6. the Ford OEM guards for the GT and the 6 are different patterns and I would assume that the aftermarket ones would be different as well.
FWIW I have the Ford OEM guards for my V6, and they are a nice addition. Fit is excellent and the guards have raised M U S T A N G lettering that some others have had painted to match their cars.
If it ever stops snowing around here, I will try and get some pics.
