Default C6 ZR1 rear spoiler vendor recomendations

Looking to get ZR1 style rear spoiler for my 08 convertible.

Carbon fiber or painted, have not decided.

Vendor recommendations? Thanks in advance!

My ZR1 extended spoiler came from C7 Carbon. I couldn't be happier with the product.

Katech makes one that is slightly larger than the ZR-1 which may or may not be to your liking.

If you want a good one buy from C7, Katech (carbon fiber) or GM (painted)
If you want anything else Ebay is the best bang for your buck.

I bought from someone other than listed above and was quite unhappy with the quality, fit and finish - it was not money and time well spent.
I bought my second one from GM and it fits and looks like my Corvette deserves.

Wait for a used GM unit to come along and paint it your body color. Real carbon fiber is too expensive and frankly overrated, unless your sticking CF all over the body. Then you’ll get next to nothing for it on trade or resale. PS not everyone wants or likes CF.

Mine was a perfect fit right out of the box. All my body guy needed to do was paint it.

My 5 year old C7 Carbon ZR1 spoiler today still looks great! I did have to file the opening slightly from the inside for the rear brake light to fit in properly flush that was it drilling the holes is no problem and I used stainless steel screws with Fender washers underneath

Anybody reading this , receive inferior paint or spoiler fit/finish from RPI designs.....

I'm needing to make choice between ZR-1 (replica) or GM Racing/Ron Fellows (replica)
from RPI painted Inferno Orange OR moving on to another vendor ????
