Chevy Corvette Side Skirts

For many Americans, the Chevrolet Corvette is the quintessential sports car. Since its introduction in 1953, the model has stood the test of time thanks to its amazing blend of performance and cutting-edge design, collecting records and awards worldwide. It is no surprise that the Corvette is one of the most customized cars in the US. Its strong racing attitude, in fact, makes it perfect for a series of aerodynamic add-ons, such as bumper lips, spoilers, and side skirts. The latter, originally introduced in the F1 environment in 1970, play a huge role in creating the so-called “ground effect,” resulting in better handling of the vehicle, especially when cornering.

A perfect function of side skirts requires precise design and tuning, even if it seems quite intuitive. The skirts, located as low as possible near the ground, usually incorporate air splitters that cut the airflow, pushing most of it up along the sides of the car, while just a small portion goes under the vehicle. As a result, a low-pressure area is created under the car, which makes it “stick” to the ground, improving traction. In our online store, we offer a large assortment of top-notch Chevy Corvette side skirts skillfully designed to give a hint of racing performance and looks to your daily driver.
