It looks like the splitter is "buit-in"...

Most likely modular (hopefully).

But that would mean getting a replacement from them only if the need arose.

It may "fit", but the body lines won't line up with a non-ZR1 hood properly.



Note how the body lines of the new hood go down into the nose. I think the only way this could be done with OEM ZR1 parts and look decent at all would require the bumper, hood, and probably both front quarterpanels.

^^^ It will NOT fit. The ZR1 is 1/2 inch wider than the ZO6/Grand Sport in the front.

I personally don't like the front bumper on the ZR1. The more I look at it I just don't care for it

I absolutely LOVE the new ZR1 nose-very Aventador-looking, which is a great thing.


I've always felt as though Corvette has a reputation of having a very "non-descript" nose. It totally prevented me from buying a C6. To me, the C7 nose is better than a C6, but not by much. So this change is VERY welcome, in my view.
looking nose for sure. Just hate it going to cost again more than 700.00 just to have it X-PEL put on it. Robert

The extra center bezel is making me cringe. It seems very out of place to me.
