About ACI
Welcome to American Custom Industries !
We manufacture the finest quality, best-fitting Corvette® fiberglass in the world.
At American Custom Industries, we have been producing fiberglass parts since 1968!
During that time, we have developed the most complete line of Corvette replacement fiberglass parts, stock or custom, available anywhere. Unless noted, we manufacture all the fiberglass items you see in our catalog. All of our molds and parts are prototyped and developed by ACI in our in-house R&D department.
We also have one of the finest mechanical service centers around, staffed with some of the best Corvette technicians anywhere. This unique combination allows us the ability to test and fit our parts on a regular basis and offer you technical support when you need it.
Quality Control
After 48 years of building high quality Corvette Fiberglass, our Customers are our Quality Control! ACI has increased its technological diversity as well as streamlined its manufacturing.
Customer Satisfaction
Customer satisfaction is very important to us at ACI. After all, our best form of advertising is you, the customer. We have learned over the years that the more we can educate and inform our customers about our fiberglass products, the more we can satisfy our customers.
All Corvettes are not created equal
The same elements that make the Corvette unique and special are also what make repairing and customizing your Corvette unique. From the factory, fenders are bonded to hood surrounds, inner skirts are bonded to fenders, quarter panels to upper decks, and so on. Because of this type of construction, we highly recommend that all replacement fiberglass be fitted to the individual car before any primer or paint is added.
It is well known in the Corvette community that it is not uncommon to perform some minor bodywork in order to get the proper fit for your individual car when installing fiberglass. Because each Corvette is unique, there are very few parts that will simply bolt up and fit.
At ACI we manufacture the finest Corvette fiberglass available. If a problem arises, or if you need technical support, give us a call and one of our support staff will gladly work with you through the installation process.

Product Information
ACI prototypes and manufactures all the Corvette® fiberglass parts listed in our catalog at our Sylvania, Ohio Headquarters and manufacturing Facility.
The following pictures show the steps taken in our manufacturing process.
First we build the molds, next the open molds are sprayed with Gelcoat. Once the molds are sprayed, the gelcoat must cure before the lamination process can begin.
Each ACI part is then hand crafted by our skilled laminators with the highest quality fiberglass mat and resin. When the parts are fully cured, they are removed from the molds and sent to the grinding room to be hand finished.
Finally, the parts are sent to shipping to be crated to fill your order.
