Scrape Armor Is Your First Line of Defense in Protecting Your Corvette’s Front Splitter

Corvette owners have learned over the years the different methods for carefully driving over speed bumps or entering a driveway with a steep incline. Yet, no matter how careful you are, eventually, you are going to scrape that bumper or splitter. If you’re lucky, it will just be a scratch, but we’ve all seen what can happen when you let your guard down or if you let someone else drive your car. As your Corvette’s first line of defense against curbs, potholes, and steep driveways, Scrape Armor is specifically engineered to protect your Corvette’s front splitter from being damaged by these common road obstacles.

Corvettes are very susceptible to front-end damage because our cars are designed to be low to the ground to benefit from aerodynamics and handling. With the added protection from Scrape Armor, you can avoid costly repairs and the diminished value of your Corvette.

Scrape Armor protects the Corvette’s front bumper with an easy-to-install solution that’s now available directly from General Motors. As an official GM accessory, Scrape armor worked with Chevrolet to develop the C8 skid plates to eliminate scrape damage as well as help strengthen the Corvette’s Z51 and 5VM factory splitters. Scrape Armor is fitted to the underside of the splitter with all the original OEM mounting locations. At its thickest point, it’s 2mm thicker than the hardware on the vehicle so it’s the lowest profile skid plate on the market.

The Scrape Armor protection starts with how it’s made. Each kit is precision machined and 3D formed to ensure a perfect fit on your Corvette. Teklite™ is a proprietary plastic polymer that is designed to reduce surface friction by 50% and its incredibly slick formula allows your Corvette to “slide on and off of obstacles with minimal force” which protects the front splitter from scraping or cracking. Another highlight is the patented GlideTek™ rail system which reduces the surface area on the car by over 50%. A reduced surface area means less friction when making contact with an obstacle. Finally, Scrape Armor uses a patented beveled edge profile called ElipTek™ which eliminates those hard edges that can snag and catch on an obstacle and helps keep the splitter and bumper from being pulled off the car as you reverse off an obstacle.

Scrape Armor is made in the USA and available for all C8 models starting with base-model C8 Corvette Coupes and Convertibles for $449.95 as well as those with the Z51 Performance Package and the C8’s 5VM ground effects package which are $549.95. Scrape Armor is backed by a lifetime warranty and is CarFax certified. They guarantee your satisfaction and offer easy 30-day returns.

Scrape Armor is also available for the 2019 ZR1, C7 Z07 (Stage 2 + Stage 3 Splitter), and base model C6 vehicles.

As an official Corvette Accessory, Scrape Armor can be ordered for your C8 Corvette through Chevrolet.com as well as through your Chevrolet dealer’s parts counter. You can also find Scrape Armor for sale at scrapearmor.com.
