I love the front splitter, but I think the straight line side skirts look better on the stingray, but the Z06 side skirts look better on the Z06

Looks really good. Although straight skirts may be nicer on a base model, I like the cut line style in the skirts you Photoshopped onto your 7.

Looks good!!!

Thinking of doing pretty much the same. I like both styles of rockers, and the ZO6 and ACS ZO7 rockers look better than the SEMA East and West Coast C7s. But the LG and TKO stuff looks great. So many choices.

I never understood why people want to add doodads, Pepboys, Canadian Tire aftermarket BS to their cars, aftermarket bodykits, really....

I understand engine mods for more power, perhaps even interior customization, wheels yes, but body kits, that just screams high school wannabe racers, even the Z06's looks like an after thought, considering that from a straight on view the front side wing blocks the marker light.

I like the Stingray's unmolested look, but hey, that's just me.

Oh well, that's just my .2, to each his own.

Super comments All, I did go threw the ground effect look on my C5 but lost interest and was in the Themonk camp in the C6 series but after seeing the Z06 and the forum member C7 picture posting lately has made me reconsider, boy this is tough

Agree. Car looks great from the factory. I ordered exactly what I wanted. I have never customized any of my 7 Corvettes and still got lots of comments over the years--beautiful car. Another 50 hp wouldn't hurt.....

The C7 is stunning in silver. If it were me, I'd stay bone stock.

I waiting to see the a C7 with the ACS splitter and rockers before I make a decision to buy them. Hopefully there will be all the MFG's of splitters and rockers at Carlise so I can get see them.
I will be at the NY car show this week and will take pics of the Z06 and post them on the forum.
Yes it is a tough decision.
