I would change the mirrors to red and not mess with the spoiler, the potential for screwing up the spoiler far exceeds changing the mirror casing, and the car has enough black/red contrast already, doesn't need more.
just my .02 |
The spoiler is simple guys. Two bolts and some double sided tape. Not rocket science to pull it off, use a heat gun and some goo-gone and then re-apply new spoiler. There are two studs in it so alignment isn't an issue.

Crap! That really messes up my plans to buy a Z51 and take the spoiler off :( Now I really hope GM comes out with a spoiler delete option for the Z51.

They must be drunk at the plant.
At least if you go to black, you won't have to worry about color matching the paint. Michael |
Agreed.. I like the car as-is. If anything I would want the red mirrors too.
The black spoiler & mirrors just dont do it for me. They are factory parts that are simply a different color. I think the only way the black additions would look good is if they were some type of aftermarket design. Where you wanted it stand out. |

If you like it, leave it. If not, change it out.
I would have is black to match the mirrors but that's just my opinion. |

nine bolts for a spoiler? lol wow.
|
you better document this ,so when it gets restored in 50-60 years you can prove it was built that way,because NCRS judges will deduct points for not being right

I am in agreement with many others. I like it this way. Black looks aftermarket.

Saw my first TR C7 at Hendricks in Cary, NC yesterday. It had the "carbon flash" spoilers and mirrors, Z51, MAG, Black-2lt, black wheels with red calipers. Car looked great but, I just couldn't get into the black metalic painted mirrors and spoiler. Just as I suspected, they look majorly cheap (IMHO) and added on. The wheels looked better than I had expected but needed black lug nuts. But over all, WOW!
|
I would leave it but get a refund on the screwed up option.
|
Meanwhile in another universe, there is a guy asking folks if the black spoiler looks ok with his red mirrors.
