There's a point where it is too far. Adding stuff just for the sake of adding stuff.
Like when you look into an engine bay and there are colored wires, braces, caps, covers everywhere. I call it "looks like a Crayon box exploded " syndrome.

Take a breath stand back and look at your car.

The final decision is yours. If you like it....then its fine.

Have them on my car, I think they look good. Only complaint is the installation, little bit of a pain and comes with ZERO instructions. Thank goodness for Youtube.

Anyone interested might wish to check the C7 General section. There have been a couple current/recent threads there about them showing gaps in fitment after being on a while. Just sayin'...

The ACS Diffuser is the only one I’ve seen that I do like but just way too pricy.

They are OK. Not good or bad, so if you like them, put them on.

This looks even worse to me. It doesn't even flow wit the lines of the back. Leave these to the C7.

I disagree. It follows the lines of the back perfectly. Fits in like a puzzle piece.
