I know it a Z06. Used it a the test mule for a little more color, seen some different layouts and ended up with this.

Too much color. Makes car look to fat and square.

I don't hate it but I think it would work better on the darker colour cars. I like your concept, though.

Sorry op that looks like *****. Theres not much you can do to the rear to make it stand out from other C7's with the same spoiler too. Maybe get a legit exposed carbon fiber piece for the back?
If you want to stand out in a C7, get the ZR1.

I prefer the stock look by a wide margin.

in my opinion the extra color makes the rear end look a little thinner. I like the look.

I like the offset color of the original, but after seeing what you did, I'm impressed and have to say that I like it.

It’s groing on me daily, however I will refrain from this on the ZR1 for now, my mind is running on something else🤔. All comments appreciated thanks.
