Did anyone tried the molded GT500 splash guard on a V6 bumper ?

I was wondering why thos GT500 splash guards fit so well on that white Mustang! It's a GT-CS!
Here's my 2005 GT with the molded ones, which I got tired of, and the Gt500 ones. They are thinner and don't follow the line well, but they are better than nothing and don't look too wide. I thought the molded ones made the rear look like a Val car!

Being as I live in the land of snow and road salt / sand I will have to endure the look for part of the year. Too bad Fjord does not round the outside edge a bit to follow the conture of the panel similiar to how the GT500 one does. I just don't want to be kicking up crap on the quarters until I can afford to buy a second car for a winter beater! I guess one thing I have going is the black gaurd will blend better to blue than to yellow. It really is noticeable on your car.

Mud flaps, splash guards , etc., DO NOT belong on a Mustang. I think total Dork when I see this. Save the flaps for the Crown Vic.

As Humboldt's pic shows, when you are going with a Boss look, with the black rear panel, and/or stripes or wing, it will go with the look. It might not look perfect, but callahan, don't assume we're dorks! Just going through a trickle of water in the gutter can kick up dirt and mud all over the lower rear quarter panel, even above that rear lower side marker, as in the photo above!
The molded splash guards will stop that! Totally!
The GT500 ones will stop about 75-85%.
I mean it's not like we got Yosemite Sam or that hooker chick on our "mud flaps"!!!

I think they look great, and keep the burnout rubber off the back too.
