I love that you are a everyday Joe and show how mistakes can be made. It really sucks to watch diy videos that edit themselves with a perfect project then when I do it I find all the pitfalls and struggles. Nice job Matt, love the channel and keep up the great job.

Matt, great video. You show the success and the challenges of the job, didn't edit out any mistakes to make yourself look perfect. You do that in all your videos, real, like it is, to include positive and negative inspection of the product. Excellent job. Love the look of the side skirts. The shape is nice, has a curvaceous look that goes well with the car. Thanks

So much respect for you matt. Camaro is always looking fresh. Wish I could do all my work on my Camaro. Thank you for all the great videos.

Dude! When you picked that one up & swung it around, I thought you were going to accidentally hit the car. It looks like it was millimeters close. I know you’re very good, but that made my heart skip a beat. Maybe you were doing it to add suspense to the video. Lol Thanks for ALL you do, Matt. 👊

I love the way skirts work but I’m hesitant to do the install. I already have a little struggle getting in and out of the car now. Last thing I want to do rub and kick these eachtime entering and exiting.

In a manner of time, I will be able to take my Camaro apart from just watching you do it. LoL. Great workmanship!!!

Thanks for doing this video Matt I have been back and forth on that Kit, I think it is worth it! Looks amazing, I will get it for my Camaro now should look good with the digital gray my spoiler and front and all the trimming are black so its perfect! Keep up the videos. I'm at a stand still on my car until I finish with my other builds.

Been waiting a month already for the painted ones to be back in stock with ACS! Definitely want these for my SS

Whoo 30k congrats Matt

Thanks for the video. I damaged my right side rocker panel going over some road debris. I ordered the replacement rocker from thatgmpartsguy and got it painted at a local body shop. I followed your installation instructions and problem solved. Those white bottom clips also gave me some grief.

I use a few different sizes of angled needle nose pliers to squeeze those clips together. The trim sticks (plastic or metal) are for when you can’t get to them from the back. A little masking tape will help protect the paint too, not perfect, but it helps.

A thin line of clear caulking along the top of the sidemoulding prevents any dirt from getting between the moulding and the paint. You never see it after it dries. Simple to remove, no harm.

Looking good Mat

Looks awesome!!!

Nice. Thanks for the install video. Been waiting a while for these. I wanna put it on my SS Fifty Edition. I was thinking of painting it the same color as the car to match the front splitter? 🤔 What do you think Matt?

Great video Matt. Thank you for all you do for us Camaro Fans. Sorry, but i liked the other ones better but everyone has different tastes. You guys did a clean install.

Lethal camaro the best , always making great videos , 👌🏽

Nice video! I just traded my 2017 1LT V6 practice car for a new 2018 2SS. The really fun part was moving some of the mods from the old to the new, it's easier the second time!

Very nice car I like to get one one of these days right now I'm enjoying my 2010ss

I know this is somewhat of an older post, but I thought I'd share this. Working in a bodyshop, when dealing with any type of clip or bracket that holds plastic parts on, we use a product called RubberPro. It's made by Crest. It is supposed to be used for the revitalization of rubber trim, but it has a slick property to it that allows plastic clips and trim, think grill tabs here, to separate easier. Not entirely sure if ArmourAll would work in it's place but I think any rubber treatment that is kinda slippery should do the trick.

😎🇺🇸👍 Hey Buddy! Looks great nice job. Keep up the great install videos Peace ✌🏻

I ordered me a set of OEM factory ZL1 rockers.... Hope my originals come off easy... I'll be watching this over and over before they new ones arrive so I'll know more what is the easiest way to remove the old rockers... And what can go wrong 😁

very nice I love it, good video.

Looking good

I just noticed today that ACS Composite now offers a set of splash guards that fit snug with the rocker panels. They look really good on the website. I'm going to try them out.

very cool looking

Would love to see an install on the skip shift eliminator.

I hesitated and still hesitate to put a ground efx kit on mine because I don't want to have to do what u did if something comes out that I like better. IMO I would have done white side skirts on your car with black accents simply because almost everyone is going to go black side skirts. Thanks for the video's.

I love it very good my bro

Matt, love your videos. Aesthetically what are your thoughts on the ACS vs C7 Carbon ones you installed? I can definitely tell a difference on the rear design of these. Lastly, what is your rear jackstand under?

I went with C7 Carbon. I was a little shocked by the rear end of the ACS version. It tapers down and doesn't actually cover the rocker panel fully at the back. It looks like a design flaw... even if wasn't. Any buyers should also note that the actual ZL1 side skirts (which was integrated into the rocker panel itself) pop out just under the door while both ACS and C7 Carbon leave an inch or two of space below the door. This causes there be be addition lines along panels. The Anderson Composites are larger and unlike other aftermarket side skirts they hug the bottom of the doorframe... but I dislike how bulky their front and rears are... popping out and completely ignoring the natural lines of the wheel wells. C7 carbon ended up being a good balance for me.

would be so nice if i could be out in the garage with the door open. its 1deg out side here glad i have a heated garage

Ok new OEM ZL1 rockers are here and painted... Do you have to remove the white bottom clips from the rockers and install them first? All clips were pre installed on my rockers.

Hey Matt I had a question for you. Do you have a very small gap between your car and side skirts at one end? I do. It's less than 1/8 of an inch. Most people wouldn't even notice it but I am a perfectionist. I put pressure on the skirt when I drilled my holes. So just wondering if this common or if I messed it up. Thanks. Great videos. They have been very helpful to me.
