After owning Corvette's for 20+ years, finally heard the crunch of fiberglass. Not really carnage, feel bad for some of the pics I have seen here.
Only looked at gmpartsdirect so far, no luck
Passenger side only, 2017 GS Can I get this from GM?
Thanks,
Bill
I tried replacing mine a few months ago and could not find one. Mine was damaged at a dealership and none out there to be found. So they just bought me some real nice aftermarket pieces.
I have a pair on my '14 Stingray and they are spectacular. I installed them myself in my garage on a pair of Race Ramps. You can buy them in pairs or singular.

Suggest after market, I'd go for a fiberglass rather than CF. FG is somewhat repairable?
Here my take on what happened?
1. Secret document search by fbi?
2. some one named jack tried to jack your car from the side which means jack does not know jack about jacking
3. Trump did it?
4. Somebody tried drifting and hit a curb?
5. some old dude (like me) could not judge a turn properly?

Your not alone. C7 wide body side skirts are pretty vulnerable to steep egress and digress drives and curb scrapes and scratches.
Shipping company driver tore out the bottom of both factory stage 1 3/4 length side skirts on the C7 Z06 backing the car off the trailer at delivery. Pretty average! I would have replaced them anyway as they were pretty scratched and chipped up prior to that damage.
I found a pair of NOS carbon flash painted 3/4 length side skirts in a dealer installation kit (P/N 84113138) on line (eBay) for $550.00. I like the look of the carbon flash painted factory stage 1 3/4 side skirts and they are significantly less expensive than carbon fiber factory sets.
Be advised that you definitely need PPF installed on the quarter panels and front of the rear fender flairs to protect them from road debris w/ the stage 1 3/4 skirts. Today I wish I would have paid the extra $ and picked up a set of full length side skirts such as ASC or the stage 2,3 factory sets in carbon flash paint.

If these are the 3/4 length side skirts I have both sides I can sell you. PM me if interested.
While not as bad as your damage (you have little choice but to replace) I too heard the crunch of fiberglass today. I misjudged the distance from the front splitter to the curb.
My Z06 is lowered on the stock bolts, and over time the stage 3 front splitter has sustained some scrapes and dings. Today's indiscretion caused an inch wide, half inch deep gouge. I thought about posting a photo, but just picture a wide smile with several chipped teeth.
So, I'm going to try my hand at repairing it. I spent an aggravating hour removing the splitter today, and I'm using bondo-sanding-repeat, to build up the gaps. So far, it's looking good.
I'm going to sand the whole thing down, apply primer, and use GM carbon flash spray paint, and possibly some clear-coat spray paint. If it works, it will be a $30 repair.
I will report back when done - with a photo hopefully.
