Ground Effects

Can any body tell me who makes the best ground effects package?
I'm looking for a real rigid set to dress up my car and I don't want to buy junk.

Thanks, Keith! I think the ACI stuff is pretty clean-looking (well, I'd shy away from the rear spoilers, personally, but...).

I agree and going only with the front gives the car the best appearance IMHO

And here are the side pieces to go with that front spoiler.

Somewhere on the forum, is a vette owner who has the rear piece to complete the whole set.

You might also want to consider the Carravaggio rear spoiler as well to set the entire package off.

Todd, across the front its 100%....down the driver side its 100%..... down the passenger side its tight near the headlight and then the gap widens gradually to about 1/4 inch near the top.... I can live with it....but its not 100%... overall It looks tight and Im very happy with the finish.

what material is the aci front spoiler made of? i thought it was urethane but i went to the website and everything said fiberglass. i was looking for something that would rather bend than crack if i bumped something.
