✅How to Install C8 Corvette 5VM Carbon Fiber Side Skirt Rocker with 3M Tape & Aluminum Rivets DIY
Рет қаралды 8,382
Жыл бұрын✅➜amzn.to/4bKn8eW or ➜ebay.us/e3UCLw, In today's video I show you how to install a carbon fiber 5VM side skirt on a 2020 C8 corvette. My car already came with a front splitter so I thought it would look complete with the side skirts. I like the look because it looks like the sides needed something there in that space. I use outdoor 3M tape along with 3/16 aluminum rivets and 3/16 drill bit to create holes under the body of the vehicle. Hopefully in this video you figure out how to install or mount sideskirts on a car specifically a C8 corvette.

Excellent demonstration. I am in the market for side skirt with wing. This demonstration sold me. Thank you.

Tried using these rivets but somehow ended up making the hole towards the back a bit larger than the rivet can grip onto. The fiberglass on the side seems a bit easy to break through

What is the advantage of using rivets vs screws?
@VibrantDeals Жыл бұрын
Screws have a tendency to over penetrate and backout. I have friends that use shallow 1/4" screws with threadlocker liquid like Loctite. I personally like to use rivets because they are more secure and anchor accessories securely. I use rivets on my kayaks, cars, shed, etc.

@@VibrantDeals ohhh ok, that’s helpful! I’ve watched a few install videos because I’m going to be ordering some soon and never understood why everyone uses rivets instead of screws. Screws would be easier but if they’re not as secure, they’re probably not the right way to go.

It's not gonna hold long term without the bolt thru the fender

If you prep the surface and use a strong quality tape there will be no issues. I have two other friends with the same kit and they have no issues two years later. I've driven my car plenty and it is on there good.

Thank you! Is the front splitter the same brand? I found the side skirt, but not a matching 5VM front splitter..

Anyone else concerned about drilling holes into your new car? I imagine trading in the car at a later date would be significantly devalued.

The holes drilled are tiny and shallow. The install would be exactly the same at the dealership.
