Very nice car just make sure undercarriage behind the splitter is not damaged too.....like radiator supports and stuff....(also check under your sill plates) before your days run out...




Good luck with your new c7

Hey OP, what you have there is ZR1 wheels in chrome. If they are stamped "ZR1", they are likely GM OEM flow forged wheels (like mine). I also have the base splitter and I recommend you drive the car for awhile with a new base splitter before you replace it with something expensive. You need that spatial ability (and consistent front camera usage) to deal with driveways, curbs, parking stops, speed bumps, and so on. It takes time and experience. I love the base splitter, as I can sand it and move on with my life!

Good luck getting plates. I purchased my wife a 2021 Expedition Max from them 4/16/23 and still don't have plates. I will be headed down Monday to get my second 30 day tag extension. I have called and bitched many times and they swear they will get to it.

Now that you say that, the guy who dropped off the car made it clear that it could take up to 75 days to get plates.

I was told that, they were collecting state sales tax but failed to send the monies to the state. Not sure how accurate this maybe.
