Really looks good, would like to add it to mine.
How far out do the ends go? Running ZL1 flairs.
How many inches top to bottom?

Thanks, that is the look I was after. I may add a defuser to the rear. Another Forum Member said he'd make one but I haven't pursued yet.

Yes, or I'd suggest you block them off if you don't duct...

In any event, that style dam looks just right on your shark.

That front spoiler looks great on your car. I have been looking at that model now for a while, but after seeing it on your car and this thread I am convinced.

Great job, I also would like to see more pics of your vette. I think if I saw you come up in my rear view mirror I'd about crap myself - as a previous poster said it looks like it means business!
