I had similar flaws on their Z06 side skirts for Stingray. I returned. I've returned to ACS, even though they cost more, the quality, paint, and fitment are spot on. Thanks for your honest review. I,like you, trusted sponsored RUclips videos. Never again.
I also ordered & installed the 5VM splitter & side skirts with the wings on my '23 70th Anniversary. Happy with the paint, gloss black, & the quality. The side skirts har no instructions. Relied on RUclips videos to assist the install. I have front lift otherwise I would definitely not recommend the 5VM splitter. Thank you for your help with these mods. 😊
I’ve been driving with the 5VM kit front lip and side skirts for over a year without a front lift, and I haven’t encountered any issues. You just need to angle it carefully over speed humps or steep driveways. While having a front lift can be handy when needed, not having one isn’t a big deal. I’ve been driving without it for a while now without any problems.
Hi, sorry for your sub par products you purchased. I might suggest, you mentioned rock chips, etc. ACS composite makes awesome rock guards for C8s that look great and help a bunch with rock chip prevention. Sharp car you have. Take care.
270 doesnt really change the fact that its still a part of a 90k car. But at least they owned their mistake in your case. They never responded to me at all. May I ask how did you get in touch with them?
I just got my Z06 and all the products I purchased from Paragon are of the highest quality. The fit and finish is exceptional. Korey and his team are so customer focused. I email them and normally get an answer within the hour. Excellent customer service.
I kid you not, I posted my cars picture on reddit and I at least got a 100 comments asking me to get black rims. I have my eyes on a matte black forged MMR set for 3K which will take the stock tires. Hopefully before the summers it will happen
I do think it really depends on where you drive/live. Sure if the parking ramp is too bad you could always choose not to park there and walk a block lol
Understood but these mods look great for most onlookers as you did a great install job. The rims are outdated and you should look at Rohana, black, or another finish, as it would greatly increase the looks of your ride. Corvette missed the mark on their factory C8 wheels.
They do look good from 5-6 feet away but you know how we car guys are, lol. I agree I did not like any of the GM wheel options hence went with the most basic.
I have the brushed bronze on my C7 and they are far more beautiful in person than online pictures show. I've not had any issues with them whatsoever. When people see my C7, they always comment first on how beautiful the rims are, before talking about the car itself.@@JayJafar
Sides skirts are not installed correctly. The top of the back winglet on the side shirt has a hole on the inside. Some people choose not to use them because they dont want to drill into the car. I've bought from them for my c7 and my c8 and has had zero issues.
That was their older design but mine did not have any place or instructed to screw the side wing. I have heard its a hit or miss with EOS I am glad your experience has been a positive a one.
I don't have front lift, and I clear driveways with some scrapping if it is steep. I got my splitter and skirts from Ebay. It's going to get hit with rocks so I decided to not spend that much.
Come on boys and girls you won’t get better crap until you stop buying the stuff that gets attached with tape, this is a sports car. That’ll do 200+ miles an hour and you’re attaching overpriced crap with tape wake up !!!
Appreciate it, Made my day haha!! I did wrap the roof black since this video I think it looks better now. Thank you again. If you are in the market its a good time to buy its an amazing car overall.
I’m with everyone else. Your car would look MONEY w new rims. Btw do u know how much the 5vm option is from gm?? Many many thousands. I’d say for $1500 they look really good. U get what u pay for.
Oh yes, the 5VM from GM was like 5-6K if I remember correctly. But with EOS I got the $100 Bumper extension you put on your civic when you are in High school kind of quality. Working on the wheels for sure, thank you
As he said my side skirts have exactly the same EXACT visible mold seam marks on mine. Very obvious and looks like crap on my 100k car!! I did not inspect them well when I received them and I just took the box that they came in to my dealer for installation and did not know this FLAW existed until I got home with them. Don’t try to save a few dollars by getting the side skirts from them because they all seem to have this flaw and you will see it EVERY TIME you get in your experience car!!!!!!!!!
That has been the problem with EOS it seems like it is hit or miss with their products. I know everyone likes ACS but they can be expensive and I think that is why people try EOS. They always have mixed reviews. Good review by you however.
Thank you for the feedback, means a lot. As for EOS I think it was the last of purchases from myside. I hope they improve though and more people have the same experience as me.
Beautiful C8, now you need rims to complete the look. Extreme Online are total CROOKS! They sell junk!! I have had MANY bad experiences with them & Paragon. Paragon sold me a kit w/parts missing & they blew me off never making it right.
Working on the RIMS next, thank you 🙂 Surprised Paragon didn't make it right, did you try reaching out to them via Instagram, RUclips comments etc.? I am surprised to hear though

Right on, you sir made the right choice
I was just too excited to put these on that I didn’t realize how bad they were until they were installed

I am glad the brand worked out for you. I am hearing very mixed reviews of this brand

Depends on where you drive too, if you drive in out of parking garages like downtown etc then I just prefer to engage the lift and be safe
Hi, sorry for your sub par products you purchased. I might suggest, you mentioned rock chips, etc. ACS composite makes awesome rock guards for C8s that look great and help a bunch with rock chip prevention. Sharp car you have. Take care.
Thank you, I would definitely look into that. 👍
ACS Composite all the way! Oem quality and great customer service, you definitely get what you pay for in quality and fitment.
100% agreed on ACS and you get what you pay for, but for EOS, quality was like a $100 front bumper extension a teenager would put on his Honda civic.
Paid reviews are usually a scam. Btw thanks for the unbiased review 👍
Not all, but yes the internet is full of dishonest paid promotions just have to careful on whose word to believe
Thanks for watching :)
I bought the same side skirts and they came the same way with the seam line on both side. But was able to get $270 refund.
270 doesnt really change the fact that its still a part of a 90k car. But at least they owned their mistake in your case. They never responded to me at all.
May I ask how did you get in touch with them?
@@JayJafar I USED THE MONEY TO HAVE IT CORRECTED AND REPAINTED
Thanks. I'm going with Paragon when I order my mods.
You’re Welcome
Great choice, they would also be my go to for my next purchase. Good Luck to you
I have ordered several products from Paragon for my C8 and have been very pleased.
We appreciate it :)
I just got my Z06 and all the products I purchased from Paragon are of the highest quality. The fit and finish is exceptional. Korey and his team are so customer focused. I email them and normally get an answer within the hour. Excellent customer service.
i ordered everything from AG motorsports in carbon fiber and it looks awsome
Just checked their website, would definitely be on my list to check when I am buying new mods. Thank you
Beautiful car . My friend had same issues with EOS . I have always been happy with ACS products and they have excellent customer service.
Thank you. Sorry to hear about your friends experience. I wish I had someone to steer me away from EOS as well. But its all good I learned.
@@JayJafar agreed it’s good you made this video …thanks again
RUN to the nearest wheel store and change those wheels.. Make sure they aren't silver or chrome
Some forged wheels would go a long way for improving the cars look. In my opinion, silver wheels would look much better than black.
Amen. New wheels asap. Something darker.
I kid you not, I posted my cars picture on reddit and I at least got a 100 comments asking me to get black rims.
I have my eyes on a matte black forged MMR set for 3K which will take the stock tires. Hopefully before the summers it will happen
great choice@@JayJafar
@@JayJafarawesome!!
Thanks for the vid. Cheap parts will always be cheap.
I don’t have front lift. I enjoy my ground effects uninterrupted 🔥🔥🔥
I do think it really depends on where you drive/live. Sure if the parking ramp is too bad you could always choose not to park there and walk a block lol
I'm getting my C8 delivered in few days, now I know where NOT to order my mods. thanks for the heads up!
Glad I could help!

Rohana wheels look great, any experience with the brand?

Thank you for the honest review. Ill go to ACS or Paragon for my side skirts. Do you have a link for the mesh grill gaurds?
You're very welcome. Here is the link>>> www.ebay.com/itm/115804911382
You may have to copy and paste
I always wondered if u aint a mechanic what exactly do u do
I wonder the same :p
Great review.
Thank you!

If you every plan on lowering it, that will limit your choices further for ground effects.
But if not, worst is you get a fresh set from ebay.
@@JayJafar I was thinking about lowering my C8 by one inch. Not to much concerned about it.
Come on boys and girls you won’t get better crap until you stop buying the stuff that gets attached with tape, this is a sports car. That’ll do 200+ miles an hour and you’re attaching overpriced crap with tape wake up !!!
It does attach with rivets, but you still make a valid point nevertheless.
I know how it must feel when the products are what you expected, but dam your car is very nice, ill buy it from you anytime lol😂😂😂😂
Appreciate it, Made my day haha!! I did wrap the roof black since this video I think it looks better now. Thank you again. If you are in the market its a good time to buy its an amazing car overall.
Have you reached out to EOS? I have had great experiences so far.. That paint is definitely not right
I did, I mentioned in the end of the video. They never replied and my review never showed up on the product page either
Very informative video 😊 keep it up 😊
Thanks a lot 😊
I’m with everyone else. Your car would look MONEY w new rims.

Anyone order Amazon side skirts?
Thank 🎉 you
Pleasure is mine 🙂

Sorry to hear you had a similar experience, I am surprised how come no one else brought this forward everyone I saw was praising this brand online.
I bought side skirts from EOS and mine were actually worse. They didn’t fit and the paint was absolutely terrible.
Nevertheless, Sweet Ride you got there!! 👍
@@JayJafar thanks man! Likewise!
That has been the problem with EOS it seems like it is hit or miss with their products. I know everyone likes ACS but they can be expensive and I think that is why people try EOS. They always have mixed reviews. Good review by you however.

As for EOS I think it was the last of purchases from myside. I hope they improve though and more people have the same experience as me.
Did you say aggressive? Hmmm...amplify orange. 😂
Haha never thought of it until you said it, orange an aggressive lol but I do love the color on this.

I am surprised to hear though
Oh man extreme online shop is garbage. Their wing cracked on me in my c7. Super trash.
Agreed, sorry to hear about your experience
I still have mine on, but does bother me every time I notice the flaws
