Missing part - what is it called
Hey Guys , both my 2014’s had the piece on both sides that cover the headlight adjustment holes. What are they called. ?
Embarassing question - My 2014 Z-51 3LT Premiere edition ………. Is Z-51 a model OR an option ?

About two months ago there was a long debate about whether a Z51 was a distinct model of Corvette, or an option. I believe it ended as a third choice - a package.
I just tried to search for it so I could post the link (it was really a pretty good discussion), but I whiffed.

I'm looking at my embossed window sticker from the museum and Looking at the stuff under "Option Content" is "Z51 Sport Package". From that I conclude that it is a "Z51" option with the title of Sport Package. Another example of an option is "NPP Perf. Exhaust" or "GU2 2.73 Axle" or "CM8 Convertible To".

That was quite a bit longer ago than my two-month guesstimate. Memory's the first thing to go...

Probably the most discussed threads are about Z-51 packages and manual versus automatics. I hope you can locate the part you are searching for. I would go to a dealership and check out the parts diagrams.

Z51 RPO code indicates Z51 performance package, I guess it's a package.

The 2014 Corvette Brochure also lists it as the "Z51 Performance Package" (over 30 times) throughout.
