I like the extra length built into the ACS set. They are more pricey but offer more protection. Almost 3600 miles now and no rock strikes along the sides.
I went with ACS guards on my vehicle. Yes they are very expensive for what they are. However, when my car was built there were only a couple options to choose from on a c8z and I really like the way the ACS tapers into the body of the car. Not to mention the extended length and rock screen in the rear. I have custom wheels that are flush to the car and they do a great job. Good luck in your choice.
Jeez $600 for painted plastic. I’m sure they’re nice, but damn that Corvette tax…..
Yeah its pretty ridiculous, but it is what it is. If you dont want to pay to play, then there are fortunately allot more options now for way cheaper. There was not back in the day. You can probably get a set for under $80 or something like that from what I see people bragging in posts these days. Who knows how each of them perform. The ACS guards do the job on my car and that is all that matters to me. If I was to buy another C8Z or C8ZR1. I would probably go back and get the ACS's again after surveying the market to see if there was something the same or better for cheaper. They work, look great and I would not want to get some $50 thing from ebay and brag about it and then 1 year later have rock chips type of deal. The alternative would have to have the same form factor as what I have or better. Not saying they the others wouldn't work. Just know the ones I purchased work extremely well.
I put the AGM visible carbon fiber splash guards on my 2025. They were $750 and look as good as OEM. They’re a nightmare to install because AGM doesn’t provide new vampire clips and expects you to reuse the factory clips (or buy new ones). If not for the clip issue, I’d highly recommend them. I’d still buy them again given the high quality.

NCM installed my ACS guards a year ago prior to my ER leaving for home in Texas.
Are you sure those are ACS? I don't think they sold a CF version and they don't look like they extend down nearly as far. Maybe EOS?
Bought from ACS…..and had to wait 3 months to get them. Who knows, maybe they farmed someone else’s product. Still, solld build and quality is top notch.
I got the ACS front and rear rock (splash) guards, and had them installed a few days ago. VERY expensive, yes, but worth every penny. I LOVE how completely integrated they look, and while providing MUCH better protection from those big tires, they still blend into the car form and look like they belong there. Frankly, it’s a shame that Chevrolet didn’t design flaps like these, and have them as an option. I especially like the rear guards, first because the car, as it comes from the factory, has no protection at all from the rear tires outside the wheel wells, secondly, for the frames and screens that prevent rocks and stones from being thrown into the open spaces just in-board of outside of the rear bumper. I can sort of understand the aerodynamics of those open holes, but without those screens, they’re just rock collectors waiting to happen. And one other thing. I had my Z06 at the Chevy dealer to have Scrape Armor front radiator screens installed and I asked the dealer service department if they would install those guards for me. And they did, even though they’re not GM equipment!!!
