I believe these to be air deflectors. Easy to remove as there are 4-6 (can't remember) screws that keeps them in place. When I still had my 2018 SS I removed them to install an aftermarket splitter. Good luck!

Air deflector seems to be exactly the term GM prefers!
The intended purpose of these things is to keep air from interacting with the moving tire. This reduced vortices which reduces drag. The effect is minimal, but probably helped with EPA track certification of the car for fuel economy.

I removed and never reinstalled these eyesores when I got a 1LE front splitter. They are held in place by a subset of the same bolts that hold the underside of the bumper in place.

I don't have a front splitter but removed mine as I didn't like the look of them on the car...
