I have CF mirrors and spoiler on my arctic white and think it really ties the whole black/white combo together very well, especially with my black wheels.

There is a reason not many were made.

Dave, your car looks great with the carbon flash mirrors and spoiler. It goes well with the wheels and trim!

Thanks Gary good luck with your spoiler installation your car is going too look like it has the ZF1 appearance package that is offered as a option in 2015 for $1995 and gives the car the Z51 look and I know you already had the Z51 wheels.

I actually believe it started late end interest of the model 2014 year and you could only get the carbon flash on Z51 cars.Also 2015 cars will have a lot more carbon flash painted spoiler and mirrors as you can see in new dealer inventory and 2015 forum members cars. What was scarce in 2014 will be pretty common in 2015 since you can order it on non Z51 cars that have the ZF1 appearance package..

I would have ordered carbon flash mirrors and spoiler, but I was a day too late. I think it sets the car off, especially if it is light coloured exterior.

I have it ordered on my Laguna Blue Vert. I think it looks great, especially with the black top.

I wouldn't call option TTV "scarce" or "not many". TTV was only available for order on Z51's until the very late addition of the ZF1 appearance package (which also allowed TTV). There were less than 200 ZF1's in 2014 model year. So, basically, there were about 21,300 C7s built that could have had TTV (21,100 Z51's plus 200 ZF1's). So, that means TTV is on 5,034 out of roughly 21,300 possible or about 24%. You also need to take into account that TTV is not available on Black cars, so that takes out another 3,260 from the possible pool. So, the final take rate is about 28%. So, slightly more than 1 in 4 C7's that could be ordered with TTV were ordered with TTV.

Anyways, I like it. I think they coordinate nicely with the rest of the carbon flash accents:

I am customizing my 2014 Velocity Yellow C7 and am adding the Carbon Flash black rear deck spoiler as well as the Z06 front grill which comes stock in that color. I haven't chosen a front splitter yet, but am leaning towards the Carbon7 line of front splitters and side skirts. Naturally, I'll paint them in Carbon Flack black as well; I believe they are available in either exposed carbon fiber twill or primered black satin.

Are the mirrors difficult to remove and paint?

Thanks Dave...I figured I already had the wheels...so I might as well complete the pkg. with the spoiler.

I got that option on my TR 2015 Z51 Vert....love it, especially with the Carbon Flash Dual Stripes...



Near future, installing Z06 Grill, with RPI Design's Z07 Splitter and Skirts in Carbon Flash Metallic. Be ready for spring...

LOVE THE LOOK

I like the finish on the spoiler but not the mirrors.
