Both yours and Geese's look great with the side skirts. I'm definitely going to have to go that route eventually.

Thanks. It was the first time putting anything like that on a car, so it was a little nerve racking drilling into the body panels, but it was a fairly straightforward install, and came out nice. Paired them with the ACS rock guards in hopes of cutting down on rock chips as much as I can since I'm not having PPF put on the car.

Yeah, I didn't even bother to look at the price because I had assumed it would be something like that - but as the vendors at the bazaar would always say, "looking is free!"

Thanks as well. I actually purchased the ACS rock guards and side skirts before I got the car (it was in transit) because I liked the way they matched the other satin black 1LE trim pieces. At the time I didn't realize how much extra protection the side skirts provide. And the contrasting colors of Rapid Blue and satin black just go so well together.

Same for me. I had the side skirts and rock guards sitting in my garage for months - got them shortly after I ordered the car back in April. I also really like the whole black accents on the Rapid Blue color, which is the motif I'm going for with the outside of the car. Even the new fender emblems I put on are the full matte black versions, and once I get the windows tinted this weekend it should look fantastic.

I went with the black Camaro logo over the plain badge and the black lugs (and black suede knee pads) too. Sounds like we all have similar visions for our cars.

I've also looked at other (cheaper) options for the skirts and rock guards, but the ACS ones are the only ones you can get in the satin finish, so that seals it for me. Just a matter of saving up to get them.

Hey Mike. Thanks. Hope you are doing well. Glad to hear that you got those installed. They really look good on the car. I really like the hash marks on the car too. You should get some.

I haven't seen another 1LE like mine either, let alone another Rapid Blue Camaro. I suppose that our cars are rare enough that neither of us will see another.
