Default Rubber foam sideskirts

Has anyone tried these they look pretty good? Someone told me go for it when i asked about the universal carbon fiber lip foam they sell for 20$ on ebay or amazon. It appears they can be used on the front bumper and sideskirts. Rubber Foam Lip - Front, Side or Rear | Corvette Mods

I think these would look well with a spoilerking wing.

I wouldn't spend a dime with CorvetteMods if they were the last vendor on earth.

But that aside, those look like you just stuck on some plastic junk from Home Depot. Might as well just get the plastic junk from Home Depot.

Not my taste, but many people made fun of the yellow shipping trim left on those Challeners - then suddenly someone said it was cool.

Your car. If you like it, do it without hesitation.

Everyone’s taste is different and if you think it’s nice then that’s all that matters. Let’s be honest here, if every Vette owner cared what others felt I’m sure we would see less chrome light covers and flames… 😀

Less chrome light covers and flames would be a good thing.

Do NOT buy ANYTHING from Corvette Mods!!! If you don't want to take my word for it, check the transaction feedback section of the forum. This isn't a question of does the advertised product look good on your car. The chances that you even get the product as advertised is maybe 50/50 at best. This is a terrible company that shouldn't be in business. Don't become their next victim. A long time ago, they were a forum sponsor. The forum severed ties with them because of all the horror stories. Their reputation is well known here.

^ This is wise advice. Check out the Transactions Feedback section if you want proof.

I personally would not stick any rubber foam side skirts on a car but it is your car so do what you feel is appropriate.
