C8 Z06 Side Rocker for Stingray

When it comes to the Z06 vs Stingray debate, wider is better and that starts with these Z06-style side rockers for the Corvette Stingray. ACS Composite’s new C8 Z06 Rockers for Stingray replicate the same design of the C8 Corvette Z06’s side rockers for your C8 Stingray. These are nearly two inches wider than the OEM Z51 Rockers, and they cover 3/4ths of the side of the car. Finished in Carbon Flash Metallic, the rockers show a notch design and beveled edge like those on the Z06. The larger Z06 Rocker enhances the stance and side profile of the Stingray, and it looks like it absolutely belongs on the car.


These Z06 Style Side Rockers for the Stingray are manufactured from ACS Composite’s proprietary PC Composite material that is mold injected. This process creates a design which offers 3x the strength of their parts vs competitors, and PC Composite is thermally stable unlike traditional ABS plastic parts. PC Composite material is a great fit for the Corvette’s aero as it’s lightweight but very strong, and the black material hides scrapes and impacts from rock chips. The metal molds ensure that these parts are exactly identical to each other, and they offer a perfect fit right out of the box. The C8 Stingray Z06 Side Rockers are finished in a matching Carbon Flash Metallic Black and will match the rest of the C8’s trim pieces.


You can watch the installation video from ACS Composite to see how easy these are to install. The Z06 style rockers share the same mounting holes as the OEM Z51 side rocker, and the install process uses six rivets per side and double-sided tape to hold it in place.

ACS C8 5VM Style Front Splitter


The C8 Corvette Stingray was designed to have a front splitter, but many owners either went with the base aero front lip splitter on their non-Z51 cars or they have the basic three-piece Z51 spoiler that is manufactured from a material that is different than any other part on your car. ACS Composite saw right away the need to recreate the popular 5VM style front splitter in Carbon Flash Black Metallic. The ACS 5VM Style Front Splitter offers the same aggressive design as the carbon fiber OEM 5VM splitter, but its made with the long lasting and very strong PC Composite material that won’t show the dings and scrapes.


The 5VM-style splitter design will elevate your Corvette’s look from its base status to rock star with the sharp features and signature side winglets helping to direct air towards your front brakes and the side air intakes. The CFZ Carbon Flash Metallic paint offers the same silver metallic flake as the rest of the trim parts on your Stingray for a guaranteed match.


Installation of the C8 Stingray 5VM-Style Front Splitter is a snap. Simply remove the OEM T15 TORX screws and remove the current splitter or chin, and replace with the 5VM style splitter and reinstall the screws. If you are adding a new splitter to your C8 Corvette, consider the benefits of the ACS Composite Undertray system which serves as a performance and protection upgrade to the 1VM splitter. The Undertray maximizes the airflow under the car resulting in doubling the efficiency of the splitter, and you can also get scrape protection for your splitter as well. Best of all, the ACS Undertray system is compatible with all their Front Splitter options (1VM, 5VM, 7VM) as well as the OEM 5VM Splitter.

The C8 Stingray 5VM-Style Front Splitter starts at $739 and shipping is free.
