I bought all my screens from Vetteshop and am very happy with them, plus there not an arm and leg like all the other vendors.

I didn't put the side or rear screens in however, but I did the front.

Thanks
i have the complete screen pacake and they have been on there for a year and half or so...excellent fit and finish still. my parents also purchased some for their 2002 and same results.

as far as the front Z06 style screens (not in this kit that is mentioned) i paid 99 dollars for mine from corvettes of dallas and they dont diffuse or alter the fog lamp output any at all, or at least any that i can tell.

double stick on the sides and rear. i wound up siliconing mine in place because w/no mufflers i kick up alot of dirt and dust onto my rear ones so i went ahead and made sure it was good. i did lose one because the tape didnt stick to the screen correctly and Vetteshop promptly sent me another one free of charge. oh and the frt little brake duct ones are just press fit and yeah they all stay put at ...um.....60 mph +/- a "few" so dont worry bout that.

Looks like yours are sitting out too far...I used Velcro and you can't see anything but the frame and screen
I cut the shrouds for better air flow and bought the OEM Z06 screens from GM(Bob at Fichtner Chevy )...I bought a $55,000 Corvette and I don't really care about a few bucks for the Vette tax
