Alas, these don't fit the ZL1 or a Camaro with the full ground effects package, because its rear valance has a tall overhang on the side, unlike on our cars. His only option is aftermarket, either something mudflap style like my (amazing) Rokblokz set, or the near OEM looking (and very much OEM-priced) ACS Composite guards.

Non 1LE SS or ZL1, not required
^^^ fair point: side skirts provide most of the protection on the ZL1 out of the box, and the non-1LE SS has narrower tires up front that can't throw that much stuff very high.

That said, the absolute best, almost 100% protection is side skirts, wide mudflap style rock guards and PPF on the rocker panels, maybe even the quarters.
