Default zr1 splitter and side skirts Q

Hey everyone

Got a question regarding zr1 splitter and side skirts. Still debating between carbon or flat black for my c6 z06.*

Which ones fit good with no modification issues and also have a fair price ?

I seen the LG set but seems to be pretty expensive.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks guys

Id get CF. Also, The LG front splitter is nice because it has the under support built in. Many splitters are just that - a splitter with no support. If you get that kind dont drive over 80 Id say. I have one and its not that stable at high speeds. Go with the LG one or the other kinds and but the support bracket for underneath.

I have the LG CF splitter and its sweet. As stated above, it is more expense that other versions as it has a complete undertray where others dont or charge you more for the addition of the undertray.

Additionally, LG has awesome customer service.

If you need a home for your stock splitter I will dutifully volunteer and even give you a few shekels for it. Let me know.
