I dont think the TigerShark should count, i have one and love it but am selling it to finish my nitrous setup. BUT the Tigershark was made by GM and isnt an after thought piece. its a complete design.

If you need the downforce, then yes.

Nothing like ground effects to set off your vette.

GBVette and MyVetteDream cars look awesome. Wish my car was done so that I could post up some pictures of my ACP Custom Wide Body FRC.

No thanks. I'll save my money for real performance mods.

A slicker car is a faster car. So, yes body mods are a performance enhancer.

Wish my wide body was done, then you would have a different opinion.

Yep! I just got the same chin spoiler from fleabay. It's actually made real good, thick, sturdy! Can't wait to curb it

!! I'm not a huge fan of the side skirts, though some cars do look really good with them on.

Let me throw in my tacky ride similar to MyVetteDreams. To each his own, and if you want to be different then the other 98.999% of stock looking Vettes, then ground effects are one way to do it, among others.

the way he asked was in my opanion, Would you put this on "your" car... for me its a NO i feel it would take away from my car. if you like it on your own car then great. I wasnt taking anything away from anybodys rig that has this on it. There is a guy on LS1Tech that took a totalled 2000 Vette and put it in a hatchback Civic and i love it!
Long story short, i didnt mean to upset anybody.

Where do people get the idea that these front splitter/spoilers are glue on? Know some of the rear are taped, but don't recall any of the front being that way.
