Need recommendation
I am purchasing a phase 2 exposed carbon front splitter and side skirts to go onto my phase one '16Z. Does anyone have an installer recommendation to do the work in Austin or DFW? My local dealer wanted $600 to do the job and I am told by the manufacturer I am going to buy them from that it shouldn't be more than $300.
Any names?....rrm

Maybe another forum member can help with the install? This is really pretty straight forward. If you were in NC I'd give you a hand. $600 is 3X what it should be. 2 hours labor max at $100hr.

If you have a lift & a do it your self er, 90 min tops for the install, installers are throwing it to you. I have done a half dozen for my corvette club members, easy install.

21st Century Muscle Cars will gladly do the work. They did my front splitter and side skirts. And, my headers. Very professional job. They are a forum vendor. Ask for Matt. http://21stcenturymusclecars.com/ (972) 417-7177

When 21st puts them on, they stay on ! Matt will not tolerate a mickey mouse install from a tech. In fact, he did the install on my Z. Level 2 splitter and side skirts.

You might call him back and ask. Matt got both side skirts and the front splitter for letn than if I'd ordered them. Plus, then he discounted the install price.

Exactly why I did it Bill. That discount comes in handy. More than covered the gas and tolls to drive the 75 miles one way from my place.
