Looks like it the cheapest I looked at and I did was from a vendor in here that sales the 2 painted for each side for just under 400.00.

Very nice guy and the paint job on them looks great no runs r nothing in the paint. Plus they fit like a glove. Robert

Cheap is not always bad but those fins don't even sit flush with the bumper. Bad call in my opinion. But... If you like it and 99.9% of us don't, I guess it doesn't matter what we say. LoL!

Why would you even put those on your C7?

Do you think it looks cool?

Do you think they make your C7 go faster?

Do you think they create more downforce of some kind?

Just wondering what went thru your mind to even do this.

What was your motivation?

Wow! Some people can be real jerks! I mean everybody has their right to their opinion, but to bash the guy is really not cool.

Hey man, if you like them on your car then thats all that matters. The beauty of living in America is the ability to do what makes YOU happy! Most of the guys on the forum bashing you are lonely, grumpy old men who get off on pushing peoples buttons. (Just read some their other comments) But you get to know who they are and feel sorry for them actually...Anyway man, great looking car and thanks for sharing!
