Got the car home today From picking it up in Bowling Green. Now that the car is sitting home next to his Sister our 2016 Z06. The front fenders are much wider. Put a ruler on it and see for yourself in the pictures. 2016 Z06/Z07 ZR1
other thing I noticed is it does not sit higher than the Z06 both are still factory ride height. The Z06 appears to sit lower due to the fender flares. 2016 Z06/Z07 ZR1
as you can see in pictures the ZR1 sits close to a full inch lower measured from top of fender. As I see more I'll post.
ZR1 fenders with Z06 side coves...would've been a good thing for sure. These stingray gills on the ZR1 I just ain't a fan of. I feel like they are strange as hell.
They built the fenders correctly this time. Crazy they add the silly black flares back in 15.
yes. As long as the bottom rear of the front fender doesnt have that small triangle area above the rocker extension that exposes the tire just below where the fender starts to flare out allowing rocks and sand to be flung back to the brake vents.
I'm cutting three sets of custom wheels already for ZR1s right now, including mine and was just comparing this yesterday. The front wheels of the ZR1 are a half inch wider and stick 7mm further out; however, the fender line is nearly identical to the Z06. This is the ZR1 over the Z06 fender.
The contour of the ZR1 is beefier though and the front fender vents are noticeably different as well, likely promoting the venturi effect.

not a real big fan of the star wheels. I can live with it though.

Another clear difference of the ZR1
