OVERVIEW
The all-new Chevrolet Corvette has taken the sports car world by storm, combining the raw power of an American V8 with the poise only matched by select European mid-engine supercars. However, the Corvette engineers left some room for aerodynamic enhancement that lower lap times and increase driver confidence.
The Verus Engineering Carbon Polyweave Side Splitter Kit completes the aerodynamic appearance of your Corvette Stingray. These units were designed specifically to flow with the factory side-splitter and feature a horizontal member that reduces the amount of high-pressure air making its way to the bottom side of the vehicle. This high-pressure air produces lift, and by reducing this, we reduce lift on the chassis, therefore increasing downforce. This is specifically prevalent while the vehicle is in yaw or while turning.
The side splitters are constructed from a very strong and durable carbon thermoplastic (Carbon Polyweave). This offers the exotic appearance and strength of carbon, with the durability of plastic. The units will be able to withstand impacts much better than carbon fiber.
And the best part? These are cut in-house, right here in Indianapolis, USA! This helps us ensure that we are delivering a top-quality part to our customers that they can rely on for years to come.

Science:
The Verus Engineering Carbon Polyweave Side Splitter Kit for the Corvette Stingray (C8) helps improve downforce by reducing spillage of high-pressure air, making its way to the underbody of the vehicle. This is specifically present in yaw, or while turning, more than in a straight line. High-pressure air on the underbody of the vehicle creates lift. By reducing this spillage, the vehicle body experiences less lift than the factory and thus improves overall vehicle downforce. The side splitters are a great addition to those looking for a bump in downforce, specifically in yaw (while turning).
Our Carbon Polyweave Side Splitter Kit is an excellent complement to any Corvette Stingray, from the casual driving enthusiast to the avid track-day participant. These splitters are part of our Ventus 2 aerodynamic kit, which works in concert to add a significant amount of downforce to the car to help reduce lap times and increase corner speed.
