Default Got Carbon Fiber??? APR Performance CF

For most of us with early NON-ZO7 packaged ZO6's, CFV was a pipe dream, at best! Most of us opted not to wait and took delivery with the CFZ package on our ZO6's.

APR Performance in Southern CA has this problem solved.

Notes:
- The rear diffuser is a thing of beauty. It will fit the Stingray. I am using the stock ZO6 side extensions.
- The heat shield on the rear diffuser is another touch of class.
- The side rockers are much larger and wider than the stock pieces.
- I added a pic of the stock rocker next to the APR rocker so you can see the difference.
- Check out the side mirrors.
- The front air damn/splitter is another work of art. It is much larger and wider than the stock ZO6 piece.
- The front winglets are in the works at APR. More to follow
- The front fender extensions are also in the works at APR. You can see in the pics, I am currently running with no winglets and the stock fender extensions. More to follow.
- Rear fender brake ducts...I know, I know the pics show the Stingray ducts sans the scoop or hood. These pieces are BEAUTIFUL. If you are partial to the more laid back look, this piece is for you! Not to worry...again...APR installed these pieces temporarily until the new production pieces are manufactured. More to follow.
- Rear fender lower duct pieces. These pieces are also in manufacturing. These should be ready soon. More to follow.
- The rear wing....AH, YES, the rear wing. I ordered my car with the Stage 3 aero. I know in the pic, my car has a Z51 wing with a clear wicker bill. The wing pictured really looks good for those who do not care for the NASCAR styling of the Stage 3 wing. It runs a little short due to the wide body of the ZO6 but not an issue. Not to worry, that wing is a "loaner" from APR. I will receive the 1st production ZO6 style wing from APR. More to follow.
- The hood insert is also in the works at APR. I should be receiving the intitial piece after production. More to follow.
- The front quarter panel inserts, where the ZO6 emblems are in laid, are also in the works. I should be receiving those pieces along with the others. More to follow.


Enough ranting, I will let the pics speak for themselves.

CF pieces looking great. Could you give us an idea of pricing?
When I order mine, I may forego OEM pieces if price is right.

Thanks for the info. I just emailed Tony as I am interested in the Carbon Fiber Hood Air Vent as soon as it is available. I am also thinking about some of the other components.

jmeisinger,
Let me assure you, these APR parts are top-notch. No carbon-fiber overlays here! Each part is researched and developed using some CRAZY, SCIENTIFIC mumbo-jumbo !!!

All I know is they don't just slap stuff together and "HOPE" it works.

There is R&D involved in all of their stuff.

Our cars are not cheap! I was not about to put some cheap products on her!

I can't wait for the rest of the parts to be ready for installation!

Perfect Match. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

Here is the roof from GM:


Here is a shot of the rear quarter panel lower duct in CFZ, and the APR rocker panel.

Omar,
I got your PM.

LOL about Chi-Town not being down the street!!!

Don't worry about APR being in SoCal. Give Tony a call and he will get you the parts you want. Any Chevy dealer dealing with Corvette's can install these parts. The mounting holes and bolts are the same as factory.

Omar, the car looks FREAKING AMAZING, to answer your question.

APR is scheduling my ZO6 in for another round of measurements. Which means more parts!!!

Check out the pics, the CF is off the hook! Tony can send high-res pics of you need any close-ups. My photography skills are terrible.
