Default Best ZR1 Style Side Skirts

Hello.

I am thinking of getting a set of ZR1 style side skirts for my 2002 EB Z06. Who make the best quality, best fitting side skirt? I am not looking to get carbon fiber one. Just black.

I was considering either the ones made by C7carbon or Corvette Creationz. Are these any good?

Apsis looks really nice but they are significantly more expensive.

I'm in the process of making the same purchase.

C7Carbon review:
Come out a little more
do not have a seam
larger and longer mudflap
better ground clearance
2 piece design

Corvette Creationz
1 piece design
do not protrude from the rocker as much
Have a seam in the design from the rocker to where it extends out
less ground clearance as they are slightly taller "thicker"
Smaller mud flap

I like both, but as it stands I'm leaning towards the C7Carbon because of clearance and how it flows with the car. Just my opinion, and hopefully those who have either can chime in.

I may have changed my mind on the carbon fiber look. I thought about going with the Carbon Creationz C5R Carbon Fiber front splitter, the C7 Carbon ZR1 CF side skirts, and the C7 Carbon ZR1 spoiler.

Do these carbon splinters and side skirts need to be finished? Clear coated or painted? I'm not concerned with the material as much as the cost and finish? If I have to have the durables or fiberglass units painted and they end up costing almost as much as the carbon fiber ones welll then that makes the decision even harder.

I have the C7 carbon ones and I love them. In carbon fiber they come clear coated so you don't have to do anything to them.
