I agree Matt. 70% chance it is NOT going to rain!

The parts in bold pretty much highlight my point. You claim it's not a problem only because it hasn't happened to you or your buddy. I also never said that it makes the bumper sag permanently. You can see in my post that I fixed it right up with the reinforcement. There are three pictures in this thread that show this problem at speed and one parked. I have talked to several others on this forum who had the same issue as I had where it was sagging parked. I even recently spoke with 11GrandSport who did not have this issue whatsoever on his previous GS. He upgraded to a Z06 and the same splitter caused the bumper on his Z06 to sag. He also got the reinforcement later which fixed it right up.
I also wasn't comparing the severity of the valve drop issue to the splitter. I was just using another problem that can occur that doesn't affect every Z06. With your logic, it's not a problem because it doesn't affect every Z06. Leave severity of the issue aside. I was just using the same logic you are.
I'm also perfectly calm and relaxed. This is an internet forum. No sense in getting all riled up. I'm just defending the posts that I have made thus far. I also think it's cute that your defense mechanism is to just insult my character and claim you're just a better person than I am because you've completed a clutch job
. I think it's pretty childish to bring someone's location, age, profession, and post count into an argument. Again, I don't see how you modifying your Z06 is even relevant to this conversation. I guess it's just part of your defense mechanism to claim you're more mechanically inclined which must mean that I have no idea what I'm talking about . I, along with several others in this thread, provided proof that this is a problem. You could have been polite rather than saying my post was bullshit because "I was just trying to increase my post count". I was coming across as defensive because you attacked me and said I was wrong. I wasn't just going to let that slide. 
I know it's a real problem. I was being sarcastic because wantbluC6 doesn't believe it is
. Thanks for confirming my beliefs.

Your words and phrasing told me exactly what you are all about. Enough said. Take care rocket scientist. You are part of the STOCK Z wash n wax club.(not this area). It's very obvious. Detailing/ car care section is where your posts should be. Because you have never been seen in this section. Enjoy.

Matt don't worry. You have to be at these very high speeds frequently and RR weekly. Beating on it in weekly HPDE. Not the average Z owner... hardcore guys. Even if you get nose flex it will highly likely go back to normal shape. Because it is an epidemic. As bad as valves dropping.

Good to see ya today Wes... Wish we could have ran. Blake allowed me to run today since their is a chance of rain tomorrow. The 1 hr wait put me behind as I had to get to my grand son's Bday party. The wind was a ****.... On a positive note. My 1 run against a new Porsche 911 Trubo S was ugly... FOR IT... You would think for $180k it would have given me a run... As you saw, I put football fields on it... oh well....
