ZR-1 Front Spoiler manufacturers are they all the same?
I'm in the market to purchase for my 2012 G.S. Corvette a ZR-1 front spoiler + side skirts. And I noticed on this forum there 2 advertisersing vendors " C7 Carbon, Extreme online store" and there's 10+ advertisers on EBay with prices that vary greatly. there's even 2 local EBay advertisers that are located near me "Kapalini and Saf-au" so my question is; are these parts all coming from China just being sold under different store names? do they all sell the same HI quality parts?

The 2 you mentioned are probably the 2 most recommended in this forum. Are you looking for actual carbon fiber or just fiberglass? After a fail on a ZRAL front splitter from RPI Designs, I bought a ZR1 fiberglass splitter from C7 Carbon and had it painted body color. Very happy with the install, fitment, and how it turned out. My rear ZR1 spoiler came from extreme online store, though I purchased it thru a different big online site, and I installed that in the black finish that it came in. Also happy with the fit and finish. Pix below of both.

I would hazard a guess that the ABS parts are all from the same China manufacturer. Injection mold tooling isn't exactly cheap. I just gave $88.45 on ebay for a set of ABS side skirts for my GS. As far as I can tell they fit the same as the ones from Extreme Online Store.

I think I got it on ebay and did not even know it was EOS until I opened the box and saw the name. While I'm happy with it, I wasn't happy that they supplied the additional bolts but did not provide the nuts and washers to go with them. I think they sell it as if you already have an existing spoiler with holes already drilled and, therefore, the hardware needed. They ended up sending me some nuts but they were the same kind and quality as what I had already gone out and bought from the hardware store. If the finish ever starts to degrade, I'll probably pull it off and have it either painted body color or put better black paint on it. Both are vendors on this site and you can contact them directly via private message - that's how I got my questions answered and ordered my C7 carbon splitter.
