Default Splitters & Side skirts

I will want to add real carbon skirts and a carbon splitter to my 2017 Z06. I would like to know who makes the best fitting ones that will install easily without having to redrill holes or anything. Just would like high quality ones. I would be 3m taping center area, as I do not want to drill into bottom of rocker panels. Just opinions or experiences.Thanks.

I ordered my car with the splitter and side skirts so I didn't have to worry about it.

Check out ACS. I purchased their stage 3 set in Carbon Flash and they were top quality from their product to Customer service.

Without a doubt it is LGMotorsports. I ran over a recap coming off of a tractor trailer a week after I got the car. Tore up the front splitter and side skirt. They were flimsy plastic ones anyway. I went to LG and got their true carbon fiber kit and it is so much nicer to look at plus very strong. I was run off the road into a curb and the side skirt withstood the impact and all it did was score the skirt. Which I will replace. The wheels never touched the curb. Hate to think what would have happened if I had the stock ones. Don't be fooled by Carbon Flash, that is just plastic.

I will have some install feedback and photos of my caravaggio kit by friday hopefully. Getting wrapped in Xpel PPF right now.

But so far off the car the carbon fiber looks amazing.

I originally thought of Carbon, but Iwould have to swap out all of my Z06 parts in Carbon for continuity. I decided to go with ACS Z06 Stage 3 splitter and side skirts in carbon flash. I like everything to match. I might go all carbon someday if my wallet and my wife let's me lol
