Has anyone seen these from Corvette Mods http://www.corvettemods.com/assets/images/55151511.jpg

I am want a more aggressive look in the rear. I am planning to install one of the C7 Extended ZR1 rear spoilers. The car is lowered all the way on stock bolts and one bushing cut. I have the wide body and the 12" wheels and tires.

Your lowered and you want to add those "Fins", really?? JMHO but that's a little "cheesey" looking, but if you like it that's all that counts right?

IMO, it would be better to go with a full diffuser replacement that has the more aggressive look that you want. There are several out there to choose from.

That thing looks like it was made to go somewhere else and someone decided to stick it there to see how it looks.

Better to get a total replacement, but even then I don't like them much on a street car.

I always feel that what pleases you is right regardless of other opinions. But to me it looks like there should be a propeller between those rudders instead of exhaust tips. Just saying.
