Something closer to the Lamborghini versions would look much better.


Think you found the target market!!

ZR1’s with the large “boy racer” rear wing. Now if you just add labo doors to that package....!

Does anyone here actually have the Lambo doors?

Side skirts and a splitter are standard equipment for a Grand Sport and a Z06. They do not come installed from the factory. They are installed by the dealer during PDI if the dealer does what he is suppose to do.

^^^ Opinions are subjective and shouldn’t stop people from getting things they want. Please post pictures of your car after you get ‘em installed.

Rear window louvers do not block rearview sight as viewed from the mirror.

Your are correct sir. They are so thin and flat looking out the rear-view mirror you hardly notice them.

OP still has only one post on the entire forum. Pimping this product didn’t go the way he thought it would.

I'm not a fan, and I remember way back in the say the louvers for the rear window were big. For me I think it's more the shape of them that throws me way off. Personally I would think black, and straight across would be better than all of those curves going on, but that is just me.
