Protect Your C7 and C8 Corvettes from Road Debris with Rock Guards from ACS Composite

Got a new C8 Corvette or a new-for-you C7 Corvette and want to give it the best protection against rock strikes and other road debris? Turn to our friends at ACS Composite and their outstanding line-up of high-quality parts and accessories for the C6, C7, and C8 Corvettes. ACS Composite’s product portfolio of parts and accessories for the C7/C8 includes a number of different spoilers, front splitters, and side rocker panels, plus they offer other enhancements that help protect your Corvette.

Corvette enthusiasts over the years have learned just how effective the Rock Guards from ACS Composite are at stopping and redirecting the rocks and other road debris away from the lower sides of your Corvette where they are most prevalent. Those super sticky Michelins are great for hugging the road, but their penchant for picking up and launching rocks and stones against your Corvette is well known. ACS Composite started with GM’s “Splash Guards” and their enhancements over the smaller OEM are many. If you have a C7 or C8 Corvette, you need Rock Guards from ACS Composite!

ACS C7 XL Front Rock Guards

They say that “Bigger is Better” and that’s certainly the case with ACS Composite’s C7 XL Front Rock Guards. These XL Rock Guards offer double the protection of GM’s OEM splash guards. No more cringing when your sticky Michelin tires start kicking up rocks and other road debris and these Rock Guards also prevent rocks from getting into places they aren’t supposed to. With these XL Rock Guards in place, you’ll reduce rock chips and save time and money on paint chip repairs.

One of the design features of C7 ACS Rock Guards are their unique bladed shields on the edge which help prevent any debris from directly entering the wheel well. The bladed design helps to control and redirect those rocks downward and away from the car. These are manufactured with PC Composite material that remains resistant to road debris chipping, and yet it is nearly relatively weightless compared to other components.


ACS Composite’s XL Rock Guards for the C7 Corvette are pre-painted in Carbon Flash Metallic so they will match all the C7 trim and ground effects. Installation is a snap with ACS providing an installation video showing just how easy it can be to add Rock Guards to your Corvette. No drilling, cutting, or other modifications needed. Just snap into place and that’s it!


ACS Composite offers the C7 XL Front Rock Guards for all C7 models ranging from Stingray to ZR1 for $279 for the pair, or expand your protection to all four wheels for $499 and save $59! As always, shipping is included.

ACS Composite C7 Rear Fascia Extensions

Many of the product ideas created by ACS Composite come from conversations they have with their customers and one of those products borne from a customer suggestion is the Rear Fascia Extensions for the C7 Corvette. Available for the C7 Stingray or widebody C7 Grand Sport, Z06, and ZR1, the Rear Fascia Extensions create a natural continuation of the rear fascia to the rocker panels and the result is a balanced ground effect look from the front to the rear of the car. These Rear Fascia Extensions were designed to be combined with ACS Composite’s XL Rear Rock Guards to achieve a continuous look.


The ACS Rear Fascia Extensions are manufactured in PC Composite plastic just like the Rock Guards and they are impervious to heat and will resist scrapes and chipping. They are pre-painted in Carbon Flash Black Metallic to match the Corvette’s other trim parts and they are ready for installation right out of the box.


C7 Stingray owners have a slightly different installation process than the widebody models so make sure you are selecting the correct solution. C7 Stingray Rear Fascia Extenders are sold by ACS for $179/pair and shipping is included.

C7 Grand Sport, Z06 and ZR1 owners use this link for widebody versions of the Rear Fascia Extensions. ACS offers them for $179/pair and shipping is included.

C8 Corvette Rock Guards

After being at the NCM Museum Bash Event and seeing all those great C8 Corvettes driven from all points in the USA and Canada, it’s clear to us that C8 owners could use the additional protection that ACS Composite’s C8 Rock Guards can provide against rock strikes and other road debris chipping away at the paint. That’s because that coke-bottle shape of the Corvette makes it easy for those Michelin tires to pick up stones and other debris and launch them rearward against the side of your car.


ACS Composite’s C8 Rock Guards offer added protection with features that include a wider edge, a bladed shield that helps control rocks and road debris inside the wheel well, and an added downward extension that provides great stopping power front and back. C8 Rock Guards are manufactured from ACS Composite’s proprietary PC Composite material and are designed to withstand extreme temperatures as well as impacts from rocks and other road debris.


Installation is easy and takes as little as 30 minutes as the C8 Rock Guards use the stock OEM mounting points in the wheel wheels so no drilling or two-sided tape is required. ACS Composite also offers an install video that can be found on the company’s YouTube Channel. The C8 Rock Guards are sold as a set of four (2 front/2 rear) for $499 with free shipping included.
