TTV on the Z06 is the mirrors in carbon flash only. The rear spoiler(s) is already carbon flash regardless of aero level.
The stage 1 aero splitter is a black finish. If you get CFV it is visible carbon fiber. If you get CFZ it is carbon flash.

Carbon Flash and carbon fiber are two different things. Carbon Fiber is a material. Carbon Flash is apaint color. It is black with a metallic flake. The hood and side vents and done if the other components are painted carbon flash. Some of the carbon fiber parts offer a choice of being painted carbon flash or the a clear coat over the carbon fiber so you can see the weave. This is called visible carbon fiber on the options list. The most notable example of this on the Z06 is the stage 2 or 3 aero package. The splitter and side skirts are made of carbon fiber. If you get the cfz option they are painted carbon flash. If you get the cfv option they are the weave that you think of as carbon fiber.

The carbon flash mirrors on the nrb car would not add much contrast because the car is so dark already. I wouldn't get them. But that is just my opinion.

I hope this helps . Happy thanksgiving.
