Default C7 Carbon | New side skirts for C5 - gauging interest!

Hi everyone!
We are currently developing a new side skirt design for the C5, these do not require mudflaps. The pictures bellow show how they have a very smooth and subtle design.
We would love to hear what you think about these side skirts







Let us know how we can help!

They look the same as what has already been done by other vendors

I like them, they are a bit different in design. Would these be made in carbon fiber and can you beat the 500.00 plus price out on the market? Also, do you have something in mind for a front end spoiler?

Does it seem that there is a bit more material toward the front than the rear?

They need not to reduce ground clearance.

Thanks for the comments guys.. We can also make any type of new design for the car if there is enough interest .
