Well maybe not that huge of a problem :D.

Do your GT350 Side skirts look like these after a normal drive? Semi-exaggerated



One of the very first things that was noticed after being around a few new GT350's was the rocks the side skirts collected under normal driving. We spent countless sleepless nights thinking of a solution for this MAJOR problem. After a Monday night of no sleep, we got it!

Ok Maybe this is more realistic.



We designed these foam inserts that simple tuck into the open area of the side skirt to keep this area clean of road debris. These have been tested to 225 MPH on a stationary dyno :thumbsup:. We would recommend removing them for track days and extended high speed driving. They have been road tested to 100+ MPH, on a closed course. Do not attempt!



Whats included: (2) JLT Rock blockers and Peace of mind and ability to sleep at night known rocks aren't on your side skirts. :cheers:

Definitely a clean solution and easily reversible, so no harm done using it. But just thinking that Ford left that opening for a reason? It looks well placed to help with airflow attachment coming off the tire and down the side skirt area.

Are there some aerodynamic advantages? I'm sure.

"Sticky" tires will make this even more of a problem. You will even find rocks in your tail pipe tips. Ford even calls the holes, "pebble drains".

Is it possible to purchase from you without having to create an account? I didn't see a way to do that. Thanks

This completely defeats the aerodynamic advantage of those side skirts. Just saying.

There is no aerodynamic advantage lost on street use. I won't loose sleep over it. Get to the track and throw them in a bag and put them in the console or glove box. Problem solved

Lol as someone who has a lot of track time under his belt. Even IF this effected the aerodynamics of the vehicle, if you were a good enough driver to notice it...you should be in one of the professional racing series.

The ROCK BLOCKER is simply something to keep you from bending over at car's and coffee to brush the rocks out of the side skirts after the drive there.
