No, it's the piece on the rear spoiler that can be extended upwards to create more downforce.

HEY what's up man? How's the ride? I haven't been on the boards since I sold my Z but had to come back. I'll probably skip a year before buying one.

Have a feeling I'm going to get shot here for saying this but I honestly don't like it all that much. I actually prefer the base C7 in terms of looks. From the specs it's 2 inches wider but it looks like that was solely accomplished by adding that hideous (to me) black plastic looking protrusion around the front wheel wells and the front of the car. I'm also not a big fan of side skirts.

It may just be because I hate ricers, and I associate all those design elements with Honda Civics and not luxury sports cars. Sure as hell can't complain about the hp/torque improvement though .
