Default Splash Guards with side skirts???

Have installed splash guards on my 04 vert - front are L5 - rears are APSIS. Looking to put side skirts on and wonder if anyone else has done that and is there a set of side skirts that will fit without modification or if you had to mod what did you do? Have seen a couple of pictures here on the forum - need some thoughts recommends. Car is at Chevy dealer getting driver side power/memory seat fixed or I would have pics. Apparently the module controlling the seat is bad.

Modified ACI side skirts to fit Apsis splash guards, by just grinding down the skirts a little at a time until the skirts fitted the contour of the guards.

IMO it's a good look: Here's mine with the C6 (non zo6) guards and chin-splitter/side skirts from Corvette Creationz:

I have Quik Z06 carbon side skirts and L5 carbon splash guards installed. I opted to trim the under side of the splash guards, since the side skirts where installed first and are easier to handle in order to trim to fit. They look great in my opinion and while they may not be perfectly flush, you can only tell they aren't flush from the under side of the rocker panels. Here are two photos I took of my new brakes but you can see the skirts.

Default Side Skirts and Splash Guards

Thanks for the responses folks. Gives me a couple of options that appear to work very well. Once I get them on I'll post some pictures.
