I installed C7 Carbon's front splitter and side skirts on my 2011 C6 and the used 2014 C7 I have now came with ACS pieces. They both are very well made and have a great reputation for their quality and customer service. You can't go wrong which ever one you chose.

I know this is an old original post,but I just went through this too. I think acs and carbon 7 seem to be two top manufacturers. Its actually hard to see the difference but when you know what to look for they look pretty different. The GTX version of the carbon7 are built off of the z06 style, but they have made it a bit more angled/shaved and softer corners. I think that style meshes better to my eye, so I went that route.

But I still like the oem z06 style (stage 1) front splitter, which is more rounded (doesnt follow the body lines). I ordered one off of amazon that comes prepainted...

I also ordered the z06 vents to complete the look. I have those installed, but am awaiting the other parts to come.

I answered your PM's on this but for those that might come across this topic the answer is yes, those are GTX side skirts and z06 front splitter from c7carbon.com. They are great to work with.

I would suggest when you order your front splitter and side skirts from them you do it at the same time. This will ensure the tint on the cf will match both front splitter and side skirts.

[QUOTE=CDH76;1590934727]c7carbon for me, these are carbonfiber.




Can you tell me the brand name and model of the splitter, wiglet and side skirts illustrated on the Blue C7? I LOVE THAT EXACT LOOK and would like to get the same components from same company for my 2014 C7 Z51 2LT.

C7 GTX carbon fiber as well. Absolutely love the look and you can see the carbon weave 10 feet away especially when sun is out.

They are a stand up vendor sent my first set it was damaged by delivery they immediately made and sent me another set I had it within a week. These aren't cheap was very impressed by the support. Definitely buying front spoiler from them soon!

Default c7 carbon

I installed the C7 carbon side skirts last week. Took 2 weeks to get them and were packaged beautifully!! Installed with supplied rivits. Piece of cake install. took 20 minutes a side without jacking the car.
Very simple install. Nice product!!

I am ready to order Carbon Flash from c7carbon the z06 style splitter w/winglets and GTX side skirts! I know its personal taste and preference, but I am trying to understand the thought process behind getting GTX Side Skirts and GTX Splitter w/winglets vs. GTX Side Skirts and Z06 Still Splitter/Winglets?
