ACS Composite vs C7 Carbon Side Skirts/Front Spoiler

Hey Guys,

I am in the market to get gloss black side skirts and front spoiler. I have done a little research and have narrowed it down to the ACS Composite and C7 Carbon sets. Does anyone have any good or bad experiences with either that could help in this decision?

I know the ACS Composite set is double the C7 Carbon set once painted, are they worth it?
How is fitment?
Paint quality?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I have ACS side skirts, very well constructed with zero defects. Well worth the money IMO.

C7 Carbon here. Product was great. Really makes a huge difference on the car’s appearance.

Did you have to wait 4-6 weeks until you received them? I really want to get a set but hard for me to spend the money then wait a month and a half until they arrive.

I understand. It was painful to wait. Well worth it. It’s one of my favorite changes to the car. It just makes it so much different than the regular Camaro...

I also went with C7 Carbon all the way around. No complaints. Front install was super easy. So were the sides, but there was drilling.

Was the drilling to install new rivets?

Yes, but I used screws.

I know this thread is a month old but I have the C7 Carbon sides, good quality, paint looked good, install was a breeze. I went with a Street Scene front splitter though, I liked that one better.
