American Hydrocarbon was just the middle man. He bought the parts from Classic Trim Customs and passed them on as his own.

Thanks. I'm looking for something that looks like real carbon fiber but not as expensive. If I decide to buy them I'll probably do Torch Red to match what I have now.

I was at the Classic Trim shop in Homestead several years ago. Watching the hydrocarbon dipping process was very interesting. They do top quality work!

Do you have to use the 1 screw on the quarter panel for your 5VM side skirts. I really don't want to put a hole in my quarter panel
  • 2pc Sideskirts in your choice of color
  • Perfect Fit: Our side skirt is designed to fit perfectly on 2020+ C8 Corvettes.
  • Easy Installation: each side skirts requires 1 screw on to your quarter panel and 8 rivets installation. Simply follow the included instructions for a quick and easy installation process.so you can be confident in its quality and durability.

Unfortunately for those with Mag Ride the cover won't fit over them because of the cable controls.... Also, on many 2023s the strut studs now protrude / extend out 3/4" which is much farther out than past models...
