For those seeking a factory-plus appearance, OEM-style side skirts are an ideal choice. They maintain the original lines of your Camaro while enhancing its profile with a more sculpted, defined look.

OEM-style side skirts come in a range of materials, from ABS plastic to carbon fiber, ensuring durability and a high-quality finish that rivals the factory components.

Agtive Side Skirts

On the other hand, if you're after a more aggressive, race-ready appearance, consider Agtive side skirts. Their deeper, wider design lowers your Camaro's stance and projects a menacing presence on the road.

Installing side skirts is a straightforward process that requires only basic tools. Before beginning, gather your side skirts, appropriate hardware, a drill, a tape measure, and a marker.

First, clean and prep your Camaro's rocker panels. Mark the drilling and mounting points, then use the drill to make the necessary holes. Next, attach the side skirts to the mounting points using the provided hardware. Finally, apply any required trim adhesive and allow it to cure properly. Your new side skirts should now be secure and ready to face the streets.

Drilling and Mounting Holes

Before drilling, measure and mark the precise locations for the mounting holes. It's crucial to ensure accuracy to prevent damage to your Camaro's body and incorrect skirt placement.

Once marked, use a suitable drill bit to create the holes. If required, tap the holes to accommodate the hardware provided with your side skirts.

Applying Trim Adhesive

After installing the hardware and securing the side skirts, apply trim adhesive along the top edge of the skirt. This step ensures a snug fit and prevents water or debris from entering the rocker panels.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application and curing time. Typically, you'll need to allow the adhesive to dry for several hours before driving your Camaro to allow it to set properly.

With your new ACS Camaro side skirts installed, you can now enjoy the enhanced visual appeal and improved performance they provide. From the subtle OE look to the intimidating Agtive style, there's an ACS side skirt to suit every Camaro owner's taste. So why wait? Upgrade your ride today and experience the difference for yourself. Happy driving!
