When I was shopping around for a C7 over the past year my wife was like "I don't care what you buy as long it's a convertible". I was perfectly fine getting a hardtop but if that's the concession I had to make so be it lol.
Now I'm just shopping for a spoiler. This need a wicker bill style imo. Maybe a stage two.
My Carbon Flash Stage Two spoiler, purchased by the original owner, looks really good and has been commented on as one of the more unique styling choices on the car. Your car, your (wife's) choice!

Looks really good, I want to get something like that.
here is my spoiler. it is simple and understated. it was installed by a previous owner. A fellow Corvette Club member told me it is an OEM Z51 spoiler, but i have no documentation of that.
My wife tells me that i like it.

Hi All,
I FINALLY was able to find a dealership willing to perform: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...40403-9999.pdf
Bulletin No.: 17-NA-278
Convertible Top Creak or Snap Noise While Driving
This impacts 2014-2016 Convertibles
Replace 6 current M5 retaining screws with 6 new M6 self threading screws- Part # 11549154
I purchased the 6 screws and tried it myself, but it is way more difficult than it looks.
So I printed out the TSB and provided the new 6 screws, but 3 Chevrolet shops in San Diego refused to do the work. I took it to a convertible specialist (with 25+ years experience), and he said accessing the screws was too tricky for him.
On a whim, I asked Steve Rayman Chevrolet in Atlanta to perform the 17-NA-278 TSB while the car was there for the triple flush.
They said it was a total pain to do, but were able to replace the screws.
WOW- what a difference!!! The top is rock solid and quiet when up. No more creaks, taps, snaps, or other noises.
Highly recommend if any of you guys are having this problem. Keep trying until you find a shop that is willing to do it.
The service advisor originally quoted 1 hour of labor. Then he later said "$100". But then he threw it in for free with the GMMP warranty work that was being completed.
One dealership in California quoted me "a minimum of $250"
So definitely shop around!

Thanks, Mark. Saved your info for future reference. Hope I won't need it!
Glad you found a dealer! Just curious does anyone know if there is a TSB out there for our cars does GM still cover it outside the 3 year 36k new car warranty? My TSB in question is the paint chipping issue on the front end. Bullentin # 17-NA-355.

Posted this in the what did you do to your C7 today thread, but back with a a follow up lol
Our C6 vert had a nicely embroidered trunk lid liner installed when we bought it. Our new to us C7 is naked... Are these liners aftermarket or were any GM accessories?? I see one piece and 5 piece liners available. Thanks.
