you will only need new wheels (or spacers) if you change the fenders. the stock Z bumper will fit but it will stick out just a little right under the headlights where it meets the fenders. it wasnt designed for the stock c6 fenders. there are a couple of guys that have done this mod and if you search you can find some pics of what i am talking about. there is also a company on here that makes an aftermarket Z bumper for the regular c6 that wont stick out.

I have the SIC Z06 aftermarket bumper
Not all aftermarket products fit poorly!
You just need a shop that knows what they're doing!
Here's my SIC Z06 style bumper with stock fenders.
