You're paying for fitment. Here's my C7 carbon.... As you can see it doesn't fit completely flush on the bumper. This is after extensive sanding. More body work and I could've gotten it to fit better. This is fiber glass btw.

From what I've read on here lately it seems like C7Carbon's customer service leaves a lot to be desired.

The Katech one is wind-tunnel tested and proven to increase aerodynamics. I don't know enough about the C7 one to comment either way, but it's just something to think about.

I went middle of the road with the RPI ZR1 style in painted. The color match is very close and it fit very well, just one minor mis-align that is only noticeable on very careful inspection. I would guess their carbon version is the same fit.

I don't suppose you'd post a pic? I'm curious about the color match for LMB.
