Default Side Skirts ?

Greetings,

I have been considering side skirts. Looking for suggestions on brand, pros & cons, ease of installation.

Please post pictures if possible, along with the manufacturer/brand.

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Ben,
Yes, I really like them too, my 1st choice so far. I'm just looking for some feedback, as I'm new to the Vette crowd.

Have detailed install info on the Carbon Fiber skirts purchased from forum vendor Southern Car Parts. They are LG Motorsports that won a SEMA Award. They are contoured and fit very well. Relatively easy install with a solid mount. The predrilled holes front and rear use factory bolts so are in perfect alignment. See PDF on my web site with lots of pictures: netwelding.com/reports_vette_info.htm

I've got C7 Carbon CF skirts and splitter on my GS, and will likely buy a set for the wife's new C7. Great quality and pricing.

Back when I was looking for the right set to install on my car I was looking for something simple but noticeable. I really like my Lashway front splitter and side skirts. If you're looking for something wider they offer a race set as well as the street set which I purchased. They install really easy using the factory screws and are real good quality pieces as well. They have been the most complemented upgrades I've done so far.
