I seem to remember reading somewhere that the Ecklers has a smaller opening than the ACI? I can't find the source again, so I'm not entirely sure.
I was hoping to find out if there are any differences since I will be buying one soon

I just bought one from Mid America, it was drop shipped from ACI directly to me , Ecklers does the same thing, got a better deal at MA.

Eckler's just e-mailed me back and said their chin spoiler is made by Eckler's and is NOT an ACI part.

Eckler's copied ACI's spoiler. I would order from an vendor that will supply you with a genuine ACI part.

not unless you get it used. they only come new, unpainted, prep is even questionable. and its usually like 350 at least! lucky me, i got mine for FREE since one of our local vette guys got shipped two "accidentally".

Be careful buying prepainted parts!!! Most of the time the color will be off slightly, only because the paint is hard to match. For instance, you could swap the hoods on two torch red 97s and they probably won't match perfectly. Because the spoiler is full of angles, you'll probably get away with it, just be wary!!!
