Its nuts to pay $7900 just to have it delivered to the airport still there are more charges as well as mayve repainting as i want the scoop to be flush with the rockers and not to show it was bolted on.
Plus I still need the wheels.
my plan for now is still i need the rear wide body and not i trested i. The front untill the parts of the new ZR1 front bumper are available.

In the same time im thinking about the welds drag wheels.
Then again I really really like the stock Z51 wheels more than the Z06 in terms of looks.
I was planing on contacting strasse wheels, flrgeline gt was too expinsive, another company i fprgot their name as they had the closest concave and Z51 looks wide wheels.
I do love the wheels its just i want the reare wider body and a wider wheels.
I feel very confused sometimes in terms of looks and the usage of the car as i use it as a daily driver I do trake it sometimes and from time to time i do as well play on the road with other cars.
I want to get the best on everything out of it within a reasonable price.

Big thanks guys 
much appreciated - heart skipped a beat when I saw it - honestly seeing it in person was a wow moment - body guy put the bumper on and 3 stage wing he said it was amazing looking
Car looks jacked up in rear - thats just because it was jacked up to change tires - will settle back down once its moved - I had car lowered before all of this just noticed it looked odd

Wow Outstanding..... Is that the Z06 Hood? I do have a question on the front panels relative to the Z06 side bents vs the Grand Sport Side Vents. Do you have a choice as I am torn relative to which I would prefer although I would take either but I for some reason is partial to the Grand Sport vents. That said, regardless your car looks awesome and with a little patience and wife support I will get there! LOL

No it does not fit - Z06 is better anyway - keep it all Z06

As for paint chipping issue - I had grille trimmed down and they used a liquid gasket to get it off panel you would never notice also fender did come with GM top area relief
