If they are 1 piece it is hard to tell by the pic it must be aftermarket. If not something changed in 2018 that I’m not aware of. Here’s a picture of mine with the stage 3 canards on and you could clearly see where the break is at the edge of the splitter
If it's one piece, it's aftermarket and someone changed it. Most likely a prior owner dinged up the original, saw the price tag, and went aftermarket. It should also have a factory under-tray bolted to it. If that's gone, that's another sign it was changed.
Undertray?
Like the plastic skid plate protector? Yes I have that
Just because the window sticker says it came with it doesn’t mean it wasn’t damaged and replaced with aftermarket. It’s a very common occurrence and the OEM one is very pricey. I’m betting it was damaged and replaced with aftermarket because much cheaper. I’ve seen 1 piece with aftermarket, but never OEM stage 2 on a Z06. Just saying
I need some help here. I have a 2018 z06 with stage 2 front spoiler with the lil wiglet deflectors (factory) installed on my car.
Now I bought stage 3 winglets to install but every pic and video I have seen, they are installing them on a stage 2 spoiler without the lil factory winglets. What I'm asking is, am I pooched with the higher ones as I already have the lil one which is one full price on factory spoiler. Hard to see but it's 1 full piece
See, it's all connected full carbon fiber spoiler. So guess I'm screwed with installing stage 3?
My 19 GS came with the standard State 1splitter. I bought an OEM State 2 splitter, with winglets, from an individual that had a spare. Note mounting screws on the outside of the winglets into the splitter. Good luck with your splitter.
Thank you, if I have to buy a full new front spoiler maybe I'll go that route. But for now I'm seeing if vendor will let me return before I receive it.

Just found out from dealer that it's a carbon flash package the previous owner purchased when built the car. So if wanted OEM, that front spoiler and stage 3 winglets would be $5k cdn.
Undertray?

lol It's not a skid plate protector. It closes out the underside of the car to lesson lift and it has molded in brake cooling air channels. It attaches to the underside perimeter of the splitter and to the cross-member. Something like 30 screws hold it in place. You have to remove the screws from the ends so that you can access the nuts securing the splitter end plates.
Yes I have that. Dealer just told me it's a package the original owner purchased from dealership. Comes with front spoiler with sides (non removable) rockers and rear spoiler stage 2

So what the dealer sold the OP was a package that was briefly available for the Stingray as a dealer installed option or over the counter. Since the front fascia is the same, the splitter bolts on the Stingray, Z06, and Grand Sport. In 2016 they referred to it as the Stingray "Ground Effects Package". Not sure when they stopped offering it (or it could in fact still be available via the dealer like other parts). I believe it included full length side skirts as well.
Bottom line is that it sounds like you have a Stage 1 car that the prior owner updated and did so with alternative parts at time of delivery or sometime after.

I have the z06 3lz package so I assumed it would come with the Stage 2 ground effects and stage 2 rear spoiler which is what I have.
Guess it was that package u speak of that he must've purchased from dealer. Crappy deal but it still looks good, just to bad I can't swap out the small winglets for the Stage 3 one which gives it a very aggressive look I find.
Thank you all for the advice and information. Love these threads.

Notice your from Canada. Check out EOS from the USA. It is fairly priced even after conversion to CAD and duties here. Then the other expensive option is ACS over in the East coast .

If quality matters, I would avoid the EOS abs plastic. Sorry, didn’t read the longer posts. Did you confirm that no bolts exist by removing your undertray? My buddy had a 17 Z06 with the GM stage 2 package. The bolts and nuts were on the inside of the splitter. He damaged one winglet and we were scratching our heads on how to remove it to get it repaired. Removing the undertray revealed the 2 nuts and bolts.

I will definitely take another look but after u bolting half of the Undertray to look inside it looks like 1 solid piece. Dealer says it's a package they sold original owner instead of the z06 package.
But thank you, again I will take closer look.
