Default Adding Stage 3 aero-2019 ZO6

i am buying a 2019 Z and have been talking to the dealer about adding all the aero. They gave me a price of $6100 or $3850 without the side skirts. I can install all of this but if this is a good deal I would rather let them. What do you guys think? Is the GM parts the way to go? Is there a better deal? By the way this is for the exposed carbon. Thank you for any help you can provide.

The lemans front head light kit is great and adds a fresh look to my 1980 C3. Fitment was spot on and fairly simple. Great price as well.

Where do they come up with $6100? The cost for the Stage 2 Ground effects in painted Carbon Flash is $2995 and in Exposed Carbon Fiber is $3995. There are aftermarket options which are less expensive as well. Note, you get the standard front splitter in textured plastic, similar to the front fender spats, as well as 3/4 length Carbon Flash side skirts standard, with no up-charge.

If you order the Z07 Package, you are forced to order the Stage 2 Ground Effects package, but you then also get the Stage 3 front winglets and the clear rear spoiler wicker bill.

Since I purchased the Z07 performance option package, I was forced to purchase the Stage II aero from GM. I chose the Carbon Flash option as pictured below.

If you choose to purchase aftermarket, I have read great things about Forum vendor ACS. I have provided their link as well as a link to the Chevrolet Build It configuration site. That will explain your GM options. Good luck.

Thanks. I was wanting the carbon fiber look and I don’t think ACS provides that. I helped install ACS aero on my buddies 2017 vert and it looked good but it was black. Anybody except GM sell the visible version?

If you want matching GM Carbon Fiber weave, try TKO Performance or Caravaggio Corvettes.

Thanks. I got the dealer to come off another $500. So that would make it $5600 for stage 3 installed. I am trying to get pricing from two other dealers but they must be busy today

Where's the cheapest place to get the OEM wicker bill and stage 3 front winglets or canards. The taller ones. If I went aftermarket stage 3 front winglets does the carbon flash match the OEM carbon flash stage 2 splitter [ that's what I already have ]

I assume you are referring to the rear spoiler stage 3 winglets?

How much without installation? The front splitter and Stage 3 end caps are just bolt on parts requiring some torx drivers. The side skirts aren't that bad either requiring drilling holes and installing rivets to hold the skirts in place. The rear Stage 2 spoiler is a little more difficult because you need to make a template so you can drill the holes in the rear fascia in the right place. The Stage 3 wicker that attaches to the Stage 2 spoiler is just 4 bolts.

Any aftermarket stuff you purchase will also require installation so you need to consider that as well. See what Cultrag, GM Parts Direct and other online GM discount dealers will sell the same parts for. Call these places and talk to them to make sure you are getting exactly what you are looking for. Gene Culley the owner of Cultrag is excellent at knowing what is required and is also a forum sponsor.

For OEM, probably trunkmonkeyparts.com or cultragfactoryparts.com. OEM wicker bill is very pricey compared to aftermarket versions.

Great advice and now I don't have to repeat it. The vendors are Forum Supporters I believe.

Much cheaper doing it yourself.

However, I had to drill into the side skirts to mount them properly; all in all cost me around $1800 ($300 for Install from a friends shop)

Side Skirts ran $700 if i recall, splitter $500 and the spoiler $300, something around there.

Splitter Winglets aren't perfect, but I could redrill them slightly if I wanted to but don't care enough. They are all in Carbon Flash, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference though on anything.
