Defiantly would get the spoiler too. My concerns on that is I don't have the rear fender scoops and I'm wondering how the skirts would match up. If anyone has any pics I would appreciate it.

A Z51 style splitter and side skirts, gloss black, would look great. Get the spoiler later if you still want it, but it is certainly not necessary.

it matches up just fine. RPI makes different pieces for the non-wide body cars.
