Default Best fitting stage 2 splitter?

Sorry if this topic has been beat to death, but I’m looking to swap the poverty splitter on my 2019 ZO6 to a stage 2 in carbon flash. What brand do you guys recommend? I prefer something where you don’t have to drill any holes, just bolt it on.

@Pineapple provides a good summary in this post.

FWIW, I went with a combination of parts from @ACS Composite and @C7 Carbon, including a Stage 2 splitter in CBF from @C7 Carbon. I remain happy with all the pieces from both companies.

Note that you'll have to drill-out multiple rivets that hold the OEM splitter in place. You can replace them with
rivets rivets
or go with something less "permanent" but, obviously, you want the new part to stay connected. (I used OEM screws/bolts, in combination with
double-sided molding tape double-sided molding tape
and
fender liner retainers/fasteners fender liner retainers/fasteners
, rather than metal rivets.)

I've been happy with my EOS Splitters. The first one was destroyed when I hit something on the road. The second has been just dandy.

You used the fender liner retainers to replace the OEM rivets? Meaning where there was once a rivet you used these instead?

thanks

ACS or OEM are a couple but I'm sure there are others. I went with ACS and it was a perfect fit.

EOS hasn't been able to answer this for me so perhaps you could please? Does the EOS splitter include the mounting flange for the factory ZO7 undertray? My current splitter is beat to death from the track (no PPF) and I want to replace it. Thanks in advance.

OEM is best then ACS then EOS in my mind. I have ECF aero on mine, but have quite a few ACS pieces as well and their quality/fitment/customer service is A+; that said, EOS from what I've seen and heard aero isn't that bad for what you pay. Really depends on the budget.

I don't have the Z07 so I wouldn't even know what to look for. If you're tracking the car though I would go with something a bit higher quality. As far as I'm concerned the EOS splitter is good as an appearance piece. And some late night backroad/highway fun. Don't think I'd trust it for track duty.

The EOS does not have the ability to use the undertray(or at least didn’t used to) I have the C7 carbon and it does have the undertray mounts. The first C7carbon I got had some issues with winglets holes not lining up. They did take care of it. There was a very long wait time for both the original and replacement they sent. Quality overall is good, paint was also great quality. If you are local to northern CA I have a brand new one I purchased as a backup in case I damaged another(didn’t want to have the long lead time again). I switched up the whole front end to ZR1 for cheek cooler install.

Thanks for the info and the offer, I currently have the C7Carbon one and am very happy with it but it is just too far gone at this point. I just didn't want to wait the long lead time again for the C7Carbon one either.
