Erik was very close to making it happen, but ultimately settled on him taking his time with it and first installing it on his car. He is a perfectionist and unless he felt 100% about the fit/craftsmanship he won't do it. I know he is very capable of making it happen and I can't wait! it looked amazing on the car.

Nice, I'm interested to see how that turns out. I would have figured they would fit right out of the box, unless the Z has different mounting holes. Your ride looks really good!

The rest of the mods turned out great!

The Z tires are bigger which is why I guess they put the spats on. I've seen spats on the stingray before, I didn't think much of it when I was looking at it that's why I was curious to see these. If they fit ok, that might be something I'd consider, they aren't that expensive. I agree though, it might look off because of the smaller tires.

I am very interested in these but am having issues today getting to the Lashway website.
Not sure if I am missing something but if you could possibly put up the website, I would appreciate.
Thank you ---

I've got the Lashway front splitter and race side skirts in Carbon Fiber....Love them! Eric is a great guy and excellent to work with.

Justin,
Could you tell me how long it took Eric to replace just the grille?
I have talked to 2 local dealers and they are giving me times as long as 5.5 hours to do the bumper cover removal, replace grille, and reinstall the bumper cover.
Seems to me in 5.5 hours you should be able to do the job and squeeze in a round of golf.

less than hour for sure... just removed the top and bottom bolts, the two on the grille and reinstalled.
