Default Wickerbill attachment

Hi!

I just bought a 2017 Z06 on Friday and noticed there is a wickerbill attachement for the rear spoiler. Does this attachment create more downforce for the rear-end? I assume you add for track use

Thanks!
Keith

Oh boy. You bought a C7 Z without knowing the answer to this? You have lots of reading to do my friend. Luckily you came to the right place. Short answer is yes. It provides good balance to the car if you have the stage 3 winglets installed on the front but you will only see a difference on the track. Otherwise plan on spending an extra $10 bucks a year on fuel :-)

Welcome!
