Side skirts choice: CF or body color?

Hey guys,
I finally decided to buy the side skirts but I can't decide which one to get. To me, they both look great and priced about the same. BTW, I won't get the front splitter because I don't want to damage it within a week or two.

What would you guys buy if you are in my situation? Let's see some more pics!

You kinda have to go with your gut. I went with CF because I like the accent it gives around the bottom of the car.

I just ordered CF skirts and splitter from RPI for my Artic White Z06. I prefer the contrast. I dont think that there is a bad choice either way though.

I ordered the splitter and skirts from C7Carbon and they are great. I didn't want to go with CF because if I damage the splitter I did not want to drop another couple of hundred ever few months. They were painted Semigloss black and look great.

I didn't add them to my ZR1 but I do like the contrast against AW and exposed CF looks...

Thanks guys for your input! It seems to be more CF preference. I'm also leaning toward to CF because I just did 3M carbon fiber vinyl wrap on the roof. It should be good matching.

What color is your car? It is definately a personal choice and either way you will be happy with the end result. Mine are CF exposed from Katech. Post some pics once you decide and get them on.

Can I see a pic of that 3m wrap on the roof of your vet?
