ACS is supposed to be. They said this fall but I haven’t seen anything yet.

they aren’t available yet. They use my car as the test car so I have them already. Final product will be painted carbon flash.

Damn I need those it looks good!

It would a little cleaner looking if they made the front splash guard blend into the side skirt so they looked like they were one piece. But no big deal, I'll still buy them. I'm surprised it took the aftermarket so long to come up with these.

lol then don’t buy them and enjoy your rock chips. Rock guards aren’t meant to be pretty they are meant to protect your car. 🙄

See ebay. A bunch on there for $34. Don't pay the "Corvette tax".

those aren’t Z06 guards those are Stingray and won’t even be close to fitting. The Z06 has a vent hole built in.

Why are they not available

Panfish 11-16-2023 07:01 PM

A lot of us don’t have carbon flash. I’m waiting for a decent option, but exploring making my own until then…they can’t look much worse than what I see now. After market stepped up nicely for the stingray and the Z06/Eray is in even greater need considering the propensity to go flush.

BearZ06 11-16-2023 07:18 PM

No Z06 yet but I'd wait to see what ACS offers. I know they will be more expensive but there are differences, ie wider and longer that just allow them protect better on the Stingray. I have ACS on my Stingray and C7 ZR1 and am happy with the quality and results they provide. Shorter guards don't prevent the pebble kickback from the front tires.

They make really inexpensive splash guards for the C8 Stingray, around $30 on ebay and they got great feedback from CF forum members in the C8 General section.

I'm going to hold off for a Z06 version. No sense in paying more than $30 for simple pieces of plastic.

FYI: GM has no plans on making them for the Z06/Eray

Paragon now offers them for the Front only.

I bought a set of those on Ebay for the front and rears on a stingray for $35. They were very nice and as good any other ones out there. No way I'm going to shell out $350 for a set of essentially the same thing for 10x the price.

I wasn't referring to a GM part. The ones on ebay are generic aftermarket. No reason why they can't/won't produce a Z06 set at some point.

Are they going to be available in carbon fiber or carbon flash? With all of the carbon fiber I have on the car, would hate to have to settle for carbon flash.
