Looking good man! I thought about just replacing the rockers and at 1200 for the pair it’s not bad but damn those shipping rates plus paint. Gmpartsdirect shipping charges are always high to the point the cost of shipping came out to be the same as the cost for both front fender liners and one rear.
I completely forgot its 600 PER SIDE. Yea the shipping always kills it. Even on cultrag its bad. But I actually bought the little bracket for the rear bumper and front fender liners from ebay. I called lots of gm dealers and it was a 3 month wait for such small parts. But lots of dealers use eBay also. So that puts you at a nationwide search. You should give it a try for those last minute things you may forget. Like the L bracket for the rear bumper in my case lol

eBay is where I ended up buying the liners and a few other odds and ends.
Got a part number on that bracket? I didn’t know about that one! 😂

You need these two for sure. Its different for the z06 and stingray. And then you need that metal L bracket that this connects to. I'll try and find that part number today. Just dont want to give you wrong info. But these for sure you need. Ebay has them. I've called many dealers in my area and they were talking about a 3 month wait. Definitely check ebay lol.

I got those two, lucky one rear fender came with it. Is this the L bracket?
Basically done. Just needs to be polished and the trimmings/lip to be put on. Then when I bring it home the rear needs to be lowered and new wheels go on
Looks good. You putting on the side skirts and splitter?
Yea I'm not too happy with the side skirts. May have them redo it to fit exact but would have to put bondo in certain areas which would ruin the carbon. So might sell these and get the regular fiber glass set and wrap it in carbon after its done. Here's some crap pics in the meantime lol. When I pick the car up on Monday and lower it with the wheels I'll get some better pics.
Finally got the car home...took it to a tire shop and they fucked up one of my stems and I lost a lug nut...me and a friend spent the whole day fixing it and getting new lugs...wasn't able to get many pics bc it started raining but I'll update later in the week. It came out great in my opinion. Only thing off are the side skirts which I knew about beforehand. I'll tackle that another day. Going to enjoy the car a little for now.
Nice job 😎
are you going to put the rear vent scoops?
I wont lie to you....I completely forgot that was suppose to be different 🤣 its ok as is. It doesn't bother me. As a matter a fact all my regular friends are making fun of me. They said the only thing they notice is the wheels being different. Is the distinction between the narrow body and widebody something only vette guys notice? None of my car friends noticed any change lol. I can spot the difference from a mile away. Its like night and day for me.
Looks good but just curious, why not sell the stingray and buy a 2014-16 Z06 for a good price?
to answer the your question for me and my situation, hassle of selling my car and then finding one with the low mileage and options I want. It took my me a few months to find a white/red z51 3LT with mag ride and PDR plus under 10k miles. Prices on z06s with that are still in the high 70s. Plus my car is almost paid off.
