Like the other guys previously said, extremeonlinestore is great. I bought my Stage 3 winglets from them. They come in carbon flash and match the OEM splitter. Fit is great and install was easy. $189 for the pair.

Official term is end caps. The small stage 2 and large stage 3 versions bolt to the unfinished ends of the front splitter.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Well it has been such a PITA trying to get these things i have decieded to forget getting a dealer to do them and buy aftermarket and install myself. I like the way caravaggiocorvettes looks and i should be able to buy for $3200 or so plus shipping.

I don't think ACS makes the highest quality parts. I would highly recommend APR aero kit. Its design looks exactly like OEM, exposed CF, and looks excellent as well. I had it on my Z51, but they have a similar kit for wide body as well.

The whole lot can be purchased in mid $3000s if you shop around.

Moved my Stage 1 aero to Stage 3. Went with:

$849 - EOS for Front Splitter (CFbr), winglets (CF) and side skirts (CFbr)
$157 - Rear wickers were GM parts (CF) - $25 off w/coupon JUMPSTART19 / https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-NEW-Rea...53.m2749.l2649
$156 - Light tint center spoiler
$370 - APR (CFbr) Wheel spats from THMotorsports

TOTAL $1,535 and dealer will install front, sides and spats for $350. I can do the rear spoiler myself. So all in = $1,885 versus $2,995 for the factory parts and no carbon fiber. At least this way I'm getting carbon fiber front splitter, spats and skirts.

enjoy the car for a little while before you get the stage 3 bits and pieces. Take your time then decide if you want or really need stage 3. Unless you are a hardcore track guy and this is needed for that. If you Will use the car to participate in 1/2 mile or Texas mile type events or even 1/4 mile stage 3 slows down these things down considerably.

I'd definitely recommend it, but the OEM price is ASTRONOMICAL. The front splitter alone is $4k (as you saw). I'd just order everything from C7 Carbon. You can get the package with splitter and side skirts for like 1100 and then add the stage 3 winglets for like 500. This is if you want exposed carbon fiber. If you want carbon flash it's cheaper than that. As far as installing it yourself, I wouldn't, but it depends on your comfort level. I messed up riveting in my side skirts the first time on my stingray a couple of years ago, but I also didn't have the right hardware. If you get from C7 (or GM) it will include the proper hardare. C7 Carbon bundle link: https://www.c7carbon.com/2014up-c7-c...48b55e46463963

BTW- you can't even get exposed carbon fiber winglets from GM. They ONLY come in carbon flash, whether you get the carbon fiber splitter or not.

The rear wing has wicker bills. The front splitter has winglets
