DIY - Stock Side Skirt/Rocker Removal and ZL1 installation.

Guys/Gals,

Since this site has been such a big help to me, I thought I would give back. I made a video (best I could) of how to remove your stock side skirts (rockers) and install the ZL1 side skirts (rockers).

How I did it may not be the right way, but I couldn't find a single video on it...so I hope what I have here is better then nothing for anyone looking to do this mod.

I have a ZL1 grill and a custom painted rear bowtie yet to install, but I will post some aftermath photos soon.

I got the painted ZL1 skirts, havoc rear diffuser, customer painted front and rear bowties, ZL grill, and painted low grill ports from Gary's Custom (also known as orange10s.c. here on the C5 boards). Great guy, great communication, and quality work.

He has various threads of the products he sells in the Sponsors Classified Marketplace section, look under exterior parts.

Nice.. I wish this video was around when I did my instal. I had no trim tools, Buckeye. Can you imagine my frustration ? I pulled both of them off with my hands
