splitter and side skirts installed!

Great experience with Hector from Veloz. He was friendly, super responsive, and provides a high quality product!

The rockers and splitter complete the look of the car. Looks good.

I'm not seeing what you're seeing. There isn't a gap - it is quite snug up against the car. (?)

[I]This gap from skirt to car panel maybe not gap but ridge of panel doesn't meet skirt that makes it look off.

Just maybe skirts fit different on c7 than GS panels. It looks good >

I guess it depends what kind of skirts you get. No gap / ridge showing on ACS skirts...

Nice job, I'm having my Apsis Carbon Fiber Stage 3 splitter and Z06 Side skirts being Xpel'ed now and should get them back this wednesday to install. Quick question, How is the clearance of the splitter going up and down driveways? My rubber dam under the nose scrubs a bit, but the poverty splitter hasn't touched anything yet and not sure if the Stage 3 splitter will hit. Any insight you can share?

So far I've done the following:

Chin spoiler with stage 3 winglets;
Side skirts;
Stage 2 Z06 spoiler;
Z06 fender scoops; and
lowered it on stock bolts.

Other than the wheels, any other thoughts?

Me personally, if I had a stingray or GS, I would look to SC it. I've seen some #'s in the 600+ rwhp and the outcome is almost stock look and super drivable.

I know some z06 guys poo-poo the idea. But a buddy of mine just purchased a GS and he is installing clear z06 tail lights..

car looks great!
