Rokblokz on 23 ZLE

Well, they might help some, but they need to be 3/4”-1” wider at the bottom and they need to come straight down, rather than follow the body line. I sent these front photos to Rokblokz for comment. At least it is easily reversible since no extra holes are drilled.

Yep. I just got mine from zl1 addons (the regular ones) and they don't look like they're going to stop much of anything. I wanted to return them, but they make you pay a restocking fee plus your own shipping, so it's not even worth the time.

I knew I was taking a chance on the Rokblokz, because they didn’t say they would fit. I’m not looking for a refund or to return them, I would just like them to make a set that covers the tire.

I see, I see, coverage is much better on my SS with its "puny" 285 wide fronts...

Well, I still wouldn't send them back either, because despite checking every set of mudflaps or rock guards I could find, I haven't found any that would be wider than these. I'm afraid that short of buying generic truck mudflaps and modding them, this is all she wrote, and I wouldn't put some ghetto DIY flaps on a brand new 2023 ZLE.

That said, if you look at the angles, even these (along with the side skirts) should stop the majority of rocks thrown backwards.

Who here has done PPF on their sides/rockers?

NashZL1 · 08-17-2022, 06:36 AM

Those don't look any wider than the ACS I have on my ZL1. As stated in Post 4, "...if you look at the angles, even these (along with the side skirts) should stop the majority of rocks thrown backwards." I agree.

There isn't a great product out for the front's, you can go with protection, or aesthetics, but not both.

I've been using the $15 universals on the last few cars and they flat out work, but you trade off some of the looks, and then too many of you need a full install solution and lack the creativity to mount them.

The Zl1 Addons work and look great on the rear but they're much too short on the front, reason I went with a universal solution.

I have the ZL1 Addons which are about the same size and they surprisingly work pretty good. I have Ppf behind the door and it still gets cut up a bit. You need to ppf the rear front fenders on this car even with big truck mud flaps
