Default C7 Waterfall

I was wondering if any C7 coupe owners have the ACS waterfall and your thoughts. $1500.00 is a nice chunk of change to buy something you may not be happy with. Just your thoughts.

Thanks

While it may be kind of a useful product, I am not wild about the look nor the price. But, others may find it a great product. Hopefully others will chime in.

I installed the Scorpion Waterfall in my Grand Sport Coupe and really like the look; purchased from RPI for half the price of the ACS unit. Quality piece!

Looks like a cylon head from the 70's Sci-Fi show Battlestar Galactica.

Yup... I'm old.

While I really like the looks of the OEM waterfall in the verts, not crazy about the various aftermarket examples for coups. To me, they just out of place like they don't belong there.

It's actually the Corvette emblem, not an aftermarket copy

Me too!👍 I only see it from outside the car though. I would think that 🤔 it would take up valuable space in the coupe, that doesn't need to be given up though...

It takes up zero room. It simply rests over the ledge behind the seats.

Default C7 Waterfall from RPI

Hi I have a C7 GS Coupe. I have a wind restricter installed. I’d like to purchase the RPI waterfall extension but I want to know it’s going to fit with the wind restricter.
THE waterfall goes over the hump behind the seats. Does the backside of the waterfall go straight up? I have about 1” between the wind restricter and the rear of the hump.
