Just installed carbon flash skirts, and splitter from ACS.

Let me first say I can be a bit impatient when I get my mind set on doing or getting something done, and quality and service mean far more to me than saving a few dollars.

After spending a week checking out multiple vendors to find some had some of what I wanted in stock, but not everything, however could get it in a couple or maybe three weeks.
I went back to ACS,s website (it has a nice configurator). I called and got one of the owners, Joseph, he said they had what I wanted in stock.
I ordered it on Friday, got it on Wednesday. The product is well-made, has an undercoating, and all the hardware needed for installation. When I called back twice for a little technical advice, Joseph picked up the phone both times.

It was a fun project, good luck!

I have ACS composits on mine and am more than satisfied with the quality, paint and fitment. The paint itself if far supperior to what came on the actual car.

I have C7 Carbon GTX style in Carbon Fiber........ However, if you want Carbon Flash they have these Z06/Z07 style for $590. I am extremely pleased with the quality and workmanship on the set I have. In fact, I liked them SO well, I removed them from our '16 Stingray ( that I bought them for) and put them on our new '17 Grand Sport. They still look like brand new.

I've also got the C7 Carbon GTX skirts (and stage 2 splitter) in carbon flash. I'm really impressed with how well they fit.

My Z06 left the museum wearing ACS skirts in carbon flash. Great product and great service, I ordered directly from ACS and had them shipped to the museum for installation during PDI.

The C7 Carbon Ones called Torismo are they enough to protect the sides from stones ?

Yes....I've had mine on for quite some time now and don't have any chips on my rocker panels...they provide excellent protection...

The C7Carbon Turismo side skirts extend out just as far and are a similar style as those offered by ACS and a number of other companies...

As I mentioned earlier I'm very pleased with the paint finish quality and fitment...

Personally, I'm not really fond of the Z06 staggered style side skirts...These are a bit more subtle and protect just as well....
