Default Skirts and Splitters

Post up your pics of skirts and splitters. Where did you get them and whats the brand?

Looking for a fun project to kill the winter blues while the car is in storage.

I havent ordered mine yet, but I do know I will be getting mine from C7 Carbon. They usually have deals and I think they have one going on now. They are a vendor on here if you search for them.

ACS Composite for Front Splitter and Extreme Online Store Rocker Panels both painted Gloss Black. EOS Rocker Panels did not really have a good fit but it's too late to change that now lol (EOS wide body rocker panels are better then base ones).

Also notice I retrofitted a Z06 grille on my base and I got lucky I made it work with a lot of sketchy work.
Also know that ACS Composites Front Splitter (while not cheap) has an actually function. The 2 sides cave into the bottom holes where the brakes ducts are located. Making them completely functional for brake cooling.

Extreme online skirts and splitter. I would say workable parts at brilliant pricing. Finish difference between skirts and splitter is less obvious but can fool the eye with a high gloss black shine product on the skirts as they are more flat black finish. Overall it’s a good fit for parts never designed initially to go where they go. I’m pleased with my $300 (plus spoiler) investment. Flows with the oem splash guards and rear factory valance.

Awesome pics guys. Ended up ordering primer matte black skirts and splitter from extremeonline. Going to try them out matte and see if I like the look.

If your wheels are matte, they'll look good. If wheels are gloss, maybe not so much. YMMV.

I have the factory 2013 GS wheels, they're gloss (for first 5 miles after a wash only )

I'm not sure about your assessment actually. The rear diffuser and trim pieces are matte plastic from the factory. As is the Grand Sport badge on the fender. Might pull it all together.

I'm looking into C7Carbon's ZR1 carbon fiber splitter. I think they will compliment my cyber gray metallic 2013 GS. Another place I was considering is RPI Designs.

I’ve been lusting after the version 1 from API but there’s no way I’m putting a 900.00 splitter on. But they sure look good. 👍

They really do look good. I’m with you though. No way I’m putting that kind of money into something an inch from the ground.

I bought my ZR1 fiberglass skirts from EBAY ...a brand called KAPALINI made in India.....

I did NOT like the unfinished "look" on the rear/tire side of the Flare (mud guard)
so I wound up paying $216 to buy factory OE flares and Im still planning to use
the KAPALINI Skirts .....and paint them EITHER Black to match my C7 (ZR1) front splitter
or paint/repaint the Skirts and Splitter CARBON BLACK......



OE GM ZR1 Flare $216/pair

Totally agree with this. Currently in the process of adding EOS skirts on '13 GS and you are 100% correct, they tie in nicely w/ factory matte trim in front and rear.

Thanks! I'm pretty pumped, they should arrive Friday. Hope to get some quality garage time this weekend. I'll share my thoughts after they go on the car.
