ACS Rockers Wiinglet Works.

Drove 1,200 from Montréal to Detroit and back and there was no brake dust on the back wheels. I presume the winglets are doing what they are intended to do, create a Wind tunel so the dust does'nt stick to the wheels. I have 10 inches offset wheels that where getting dirty before the winglets installed.

I know that about 20 Camaro owners ordered them. I would like to have their feedback...

I like the functionality of the part but don't care for the look of it on the car. Glad it's working out for you.

General opinion is 50/50 now. But I don't have to clean the rear wheels (brake dust) on a daily basis like I had to do before the install. To me it's worth it. Added to that, the side rockers also prevents the car getting dirty and no rock chips since the install some 3,000 ago.

And depending of the angle, they are kind of nice.

Right, they dont look terrible, and will probably fit with an "over the top car" with lambo doors, big spoiler, crazy wheels, etc, but they arent for me.
