C8 Corvette Z06 Side Skirts: Quality and Design Like NOTHING You Have Seen!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

What do you guys think about the quality of these RSC carbon fiber parts? 🤔

[@gotime1236]

Hey Justin right quick...don't know if you caught my question last video but on the RED MIST Z06...you think Velocity Yellow Brake Calipers or Bright Red/Edge RED Calipers would look the best on that color....also if Yellow...would you do jet black interior with stealth and yellow seat belts?

[@larrynewberry3500]

@@gotime1236 Edge Red is what I have on mine. I don't know about the yellow look. But it's not my car.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I like yellow on red mist. I would definitely do that color combo!

Side Skirts are 🔥

🤘😎🤘

[@2020matrix8]

Looking at that wave it is night and day difference. Sigala weave almost looks abstract. RSC looks nice and smooth and I like the darker look as well.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Well said! The RSC stuff is definitely killing the quality game!

[@HVLOVRSE]

If im ever lucky enough to have a C8 Z06, ZR1, or maybe even a Zora, this is what it would probably look like👍

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I love how it turned out!

[@envywhyenvy]

I was never a big carbon fiber fan but OMG that’s a huge difference in a darker carbon fiber from RSC. I love it!!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

It definitely is a huge jump in quality, no doubt about it!

[@Gomer-lw7rd]

This is the best looking c8 on the internet . Hands down

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I appreciate that!!

[@ManfredEWhite]

Justin, you have been doing "Quality" up grades on your ZR1 & ZO6.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Absolutely! I want as close to perfection as possible!

[@petercarey5074]

First off, a belated congrats on breaking thru the 95k subscriber mark and knocking at the door of 100k subscribers. Well done. 👍👍 Second, I love the CF products that you've gone with. Obviously, they're top notch and the best bang for the buck! Save the Wave 👋

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks, Peter!! Finding quality carbon fiber is more difficult than you might think

[@larrynewberry3500]

It's about time you got those side skirts. I've had mine about 2 months now, and what a difference. Everyone can't believe the quality and the different these full-length skirts make on the car. They should have been full length from GM or an option. I've been tossing around the mirror caps, and I guess you've helped me with that decision. Great job again.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks. The caps/full replacements are just as high quality. Super great stuff from RSC.

[@Motleymick]

As a carbon fiber addict myself this is a topic I could talk about for hours. I'm happy for you that you've been doing some research and are replacing that Mexican carbon fiber on your car. I remember when I watch your video of them installing it, I was cringing. (I prolly made a .02 comment on it and stirred the pot a bit, but rightfully so.)

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

In their defense, their install was solid. The quality of their stuff is ok for the price, but there is definitely better out there!

[@Motleymick]

@@HorsePowerObsessed And their customer service is horrible. Wendy lied to me multiple time to cover her tracks.

[@dbmracing2019]

Man……:: QUALITY speaks for itself. Even in video you can tell it’s next level!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

100% accurate!

[@preston3698]

I've always went with APC on my C7 never had an issue and never went with stock gm carbon fuber lol. Your vette is looking amazing love it

[@Flyingcopcar]

Awesome content. Was looking at sigala and so happy I didn't go with it. I am considering buying this instead of buying a whole new car with the Z07 package. The Instagram short also helped a lot with comparing the clicky paddles as well.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Glad it was helpful! Sigala stuff isn't bad but there is definitely better quality stuff out there if you're willing to spend more.

[@10SecondZ06]

Definitely looks like excellent quality

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

They are! Honestly, they look better than OEM! 🤯

[@tturner9135]

I like em, great job!👍

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks! I love them!!

[@srandall31]

Bro, your taste is exactly like mine. Black, red accents (i.e. calibers), red stitching, carbon fiber. Love it all man. Exactly how I'm planing to order and build mine. I find it kind of odd that I don't see so many black C8s when it's the baddest looking color out there. Makes me happy though since the black C8s just stand out more. I have yet to see one on the road.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

100%! I love the black look on these cars. Super menacing.

[@alexcabelo7587]

Lindão maravilhoso eu te amo Corvette,eu sei irmão Camaro logo volta ❤

[@joshm6560]

Love that diffuser

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Same. It's insane how much it helps the rear end of this car.

[@Brandonsgarages]

That’s looks super nice Justin! I like the length part the most especially from a protection standpoint. I’m getting the idea that a lot more fiberglass is used in some of the subpar carbon fiber pieces out there…(not RSC)

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks, Brandon. You are right, people are using fiberglass as a filler instead of all carbon fiber to reduce price.

[@jayjones3458]

Can't wait to see you put on all their carbon pieces on your wifes CTS5V!!!😁😁😁

Hate to say this, but that red CARBON FIBER for you mirror caps would have set it off even more. Just my opinion.

The additional holes are for the under body air skirts that are part for the Z07 package.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Do you mean the air strakes? If so, they do not attach there.

[@cryptopunk5657]

Did you have a falling out with Sigala? Seems like you're going hard at them... I agree the quality is bad. That's why I use C7 Carbon. It was expensive but quality! Keep up the good work

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Not at all. If you watch my previous video on this topic you’ll see I still recommend them at a certain price point. There is better quality out there but you are going to pay more for it. I didn’t particularly like their approach to customer service but the quality of their parts was on par for the price.

[@cryptopunk5657]

@HorsePowerObsessed agreed. And yes, with carbon fiber weave matters ;)

[@marksurge4]

When you eventually replace the splitter, what are you going to do with the dive planes (or canards, can’t remember the difference)? On their website I only saw the splitter available

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

They are bringing out the dive planes as well.

[@marksurge4]

@@HorsePowerObsessed I was looking at their products and I really love their diffuser. I wish more of their products were offered with Carbon Flash Metallic paint though. When I eventually get the Z06, my hardest decisions are whether I want a convertible or not, and for when I go aftermarket, choosing carbon fiber exposed or not.

[@skkons4]

Did you already swap out your high wing from Sigala to RSC? If so, did they install or did you have to go somewhere else to have installed? Also, if it’s been installed, what was the work around the exposed factory holes from the factory spoiler? Did you have the holes filled or was a cap put over the holes like Sigala? (Sorry, so many questions in 1 posts).

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I did swap out the wing from sigala to RSC. I kept Sigalas cover for now but it's starting to get wavy and I need to find another option. Stay tune, though cause I have something coming soon.

Call in and tell them what you want and that you'd like to have the next one in line. Use my discount code HPO10 and they should add you to a list.

[@ssgviper7147]

Hey bud, I asked Brandon the same question but seeing if maybe you might have input. "Hey Brandon, I've been searching the web and can't find anything figured I would ask you and see if I can get some feedback. 24 C8 Z stock with 1080 miles. I was driving around in track mode, and was next to a wall with the windows down. During semi aggressive acceleration while shifting, I could hear a click sound happened more than once but not all the time. (Imagine you take a chop stick and hit a table with it) have you heard this with yours at any point? It's almost like the NPP valve opened and closed for a split second between shifts. That's the only thing I can think of. And no, in case you were wondering, it's not the exhaust pop which sounds awesome. More of a single audible loud single click. As an engineer, it's almost like a clutch plate slapping together but ours are submerged in oil so that won't be it. Sorry for the long question, appreciate your time."

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Interesting. I haven't heard anything like this on my car, could be the wheels believe it or not, they do click under certain circumstances.

You guys realize that OEM is not necessarily manufactured by GM, right?

It is 100% not manufactured by GM.

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

You are looking at two different series pre peg carbon, and if your not into racing bicycles then you might not have caught that. Older Ferraris use T700 or below and you see it in the weave. Modern day super high dollar stuff is T1100, and its about weight. The T stands for TORAY the Japanese company that makes the good stuff by the tons. The Sigala looks like some other companies Pre PEG FABRIC. MOST car applications are T800. The higher you go in the fabric numbers the material is lighter but becomes more unidirectional.

[@superchargederay]

There is no comparison when comparing Sigala to RSC. Sigala is absolute junk and one of the worst company’s in the industry to deal with. Bill and the team at RSC are good people and care about their quality and customer experience.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Bill really does take customer service seriously!
