Default Behold, SPOILER DELETE.

It took a while, but thanks to Scott at Criswell, I got it just the way I wanted. 2LT, 7-speed, Blade Silver/Jet Black, Machined wheels, Performance exhaust. Spoiler delete.

My 3lt, Laguna blue (non Z51) came with dealer installed spoiler which arrived 2 weeks after the car. Had it installed and after looking at the car wish I had left it off. I think the car looks so much sleeker without a spoiler.Just my opinion.

I think he means that he wanted a Z51 with a base spoiler.

How'd you do it - just add the Z51 wheels to a base car and not do ZF1?

I have the spoiler but I kinda think it looks better without it.

Looks good, enjoy it. As for the spoiler obviously a personal preference one way or another.

Looks great without the spoiler! As much as I wanted the Z51 package, I almost went with the base car just to eliminate the spoiler. I personally dislike the looks of it, and the fact that it reduces the rear visibility. The birds like it though, because it gives them a place to sit and poop. If it could be easily removed, it would be gone.

Cheers,
Rusty

Thanks guys. Criswell was the only dealer that could get this accomplished. Its the ZF1 option, hold the spoiler. I like the back of the car with just the little 3rd brake light mini spoiler.

The C7 looks "nude" without the spolier. But hey, I like the look, and the wheels. Great choice and nice set up.

Besides, who doesn't like the look of a "nude" ride.

I did not know you could do that. I actually like the car better without the spoiler.

Hold the spoiler?

So did Criswell/GM charged the full ZF1 option price with no credit?

I like the look without the Spoiler too. One of my wish list hopes for 2016 was give buyers full choice of wheels without all the other frills.

Love those wheels...machine face...tight.... if you are happy, that is what counts. Is the ZF1 option mean the spoiler is installed at the factory ? Just curious on my 2014 ( and I thought on all cars with Z51 spoiler) this was to be installed at the dealer??
If that is the case just tell them not to put it on...sell the spoiler...you paid for it

The car in the picture HAS a spoiler. It's not the ZF1/Z51 full length spoiler but it's the same one that comes on the not Z51/ZF1 Stingray. It's great that they were able to get you ZF1 without a spoiler but did they reduce the cost for that package? If not, they probably have a spoiler up on eBay that you paid for

Can one get the spoiler deleted on a regular coupe? If it is dealer installed, I imagine it is really up to the dealer if he is willing to not put it on.
