Need some help figuring this out. What's the difference between these skirts? Mostly looking for rock protection, visual enhancement, and on the low side, performance (probably won't ever track).
From what I have read here, on the forum; the performance enhancement is basically none until you get to higher speeds.
To me, the big difference is looks and fitment. I believe the Z06 skirts won't fit on Stingray because of the wider rear fenders on the Z06. If you pick any of the others, you should be fine.
I plan on adding these to the car in the near future. In the mean time, I had XPEL installed on the car including the lower door panels and rockers.
I bought ACS rockers and their new mud flaps for protection and I like the look and quality of their products. Their mud flaps are longer and wider than the GM flaps, but not overpowering.
It's all appearance. I went with ACS zero 7 style skirts, I like the way they accentuate the line on the rocker panels. It's really up to you on what your personal preference is.

The Z06 style side skirts from C7 Carbon will fit the base model stingray just fine. If you look at their site it says just that, and you'll also notice the photos of it are all on non-z06 cars. They aren't as clear if the z06 stage 2 front splitter fits the base model stingray, I'm expecting it does since they sell it in a package with the side skirts and say that it fits 2014+ and the z06 didn't exist until 2015.
At the end of the day just buy whatever you think looks good on your car, I wouldn't worry about them unless you're planning on building a track car and then I don't think any of the factory replicas are very good, I mean they use totally different aero parts for the real C7.R that they race.

Put G3 Carbon on your list to check. American made, Veteran owned. Quality products and excellent price points. Alan Eosso owner. I placed my order for the Z06 stage 1 front splitter and Z06 style side skirts, all painted in Carbon Flash metallic.
Slight side track, The Wife is wanting Blade Silver skirts to go with our Night Race Blue w/BS full stripes. Said if we (she?) didn't like it, we'll get them painted or replaced.
Here's the exposed carbon fiber gtx side skirts I just received from c7 carbon. They look awesome and are way better priced then anywhere else I found. They have a thread going in this section offering forum members a discount.
