Default Extreme Dimensions 109691

It is a C7, Z06 style rear spoiler for a C6.

http://extremedimensions.com/2005-20...r-2-Piece.html

Has anyone bought one and installed it?

Thanks!

Wonder what this means "DURAFLEX Decreases the Chance of Shipping Damage by 75%"?

I would like to get a little more info on it also. I am about to buy a rear spoiler and front splitter, but the GM full length and the ZR1 is just not that aggressive looking in my opinion.
I am thinking about the C7 Carbon ZR1 Extended version, but this one may also look a little more aggressive, then the stock C6 units.
It looks like they took a stock ZR1 style spoiler and added some type of material to it and most likely it is some type of flexible material.

Less likely to be damaged in shipment?

To me it doesn't look more aggressive than the ZR1 extended version spoiler. Also, being duraflex I'd be scared of the prep time and work involved to get it to look factory. The only picture of it on an actual car is a render as well... The screws that show look funny IMO.

I contacted extreme dimensions about their rear bumper as pictured in your post, and they didn't provide the reflectors and couldn't verify mounting points (factory mounting points)....not to mention they wanted funny money for a duraflex, untested, unproven, no actual pictures product. No thanks.

I have the C7 Carbon extended on it now with an APR diffuser.

Looking good. I want the ZR extended spoiler, but don't want to drill into car. Is there an option out there not to drill?


BTW, if you decide to try to extreme dimension one and need to get rid of that C7 one, let me know!---timd38

I wouldn't buy anything from extreme dimensions, Google or do a search here. Their product is crap and does not fit well at all. Everything they make is crap. You will spend more time in body shop work than buying a quality piece elsewhere.

The stock ZR1 spoiler would require you to drill the two extra holes also. However you might be able to buy some of the 3M double side tape and the adhesive enhancer and just use the two mounting bolts that holds the stock spoiler/third brake light.

I had a GM full length spoiler on it before, so no drilling was required. You could leave the outside bolts off and use 3M tape, so that you would not need to drill holes.

How was the fit and finish, and I assume you have the carbon fiber spoiler.

My experience with them in the past was not positive. I was hoping that they improved, but it doesn't sound like it.

I bought my splitter and diffuser from APR and it all fits perfect, but it costs 3 times as much. Like they say, you get what you pay for!

In this case no one else makes one.

Thanks for the info guys.

I'm looking at the C7 one or this one (both are same style, different supplier):

http://www.c7carbon.com/zr1-corvette...on-fiber-p-472

http://www.westcoastcorvette.com/p-1...r-spoiler.aspx

Anybody have suggestions on which supplier, since they look the exact same and are described as such...?

Not bad, better than the Extreme Dimensions stuff I bough, but not as good as the APR.

Katech has a good looking one also.

Thanks! Hate to say it, but you are the only positive I found on the forum or the internet.
