Default ZR1 front fascia on Z51?

The front fascia of the ZR1 looks really great and most likely will solve the cooling issues of the Z06.

Will the front fascia fit the Z51 (will not only look good on mine, will also help the cooling once the SC will be installed ...) ?

Regards

Götz

No, it will not fit on the Z51 unless you replace the front fenders too with the new ZR1 front fenders and go with a wide body build.

From the pictures it seems that the fenders are not really wider, but has front fender spats.

One of our Vendors already started a thread about this. They are possibly going to look at making a ZR1 nose for the Z51's.

Check out the ZR1 revealing on youtube. Absolutely, positively no front fender spats...

All C7 (except the ZR1) share the same nose cap.

Putting the ZR1 nose on a Stingray will require the same changes as putting a ZR1 nose on a Z06/GS.
