Default Big Wing getting bigger... and higher!

We're in the process of molding our prototype ZTX aero now and some of you guys just want that big wing bigger! Haha Well, I'm happy to say we have some options for you and they'll be ready to buy this month with an ESD of Jan 2019!

Option 1:
We just finished the design phase and are rolling into production with our ZTK High Wing Brackets. These brackets raise the spoiler approximately 50mm and are made from billet T6061 aluminum for that ACR type of look!

Option 2:
Our ZTX rear spoiler is about half a foot wider than the current ZR1 spoiler if I recall! Here is a shot of that vs. the OEM one on the ZR1 for reference.

Option 3:
1 or 2 not enough... how about 1 AND 2! The ZTX Wing WITH the High Wing Brackets will really take your C7 to the next level as far as aggressiveness and I'll have this configuration on my ZR1 in a couple of weeks!

It can be balanced out with our ZTX Front Splitter next month too!

Nothing like making the wing properly sized! Good job! Ever since the spy shots of the ZR1, I felt like the wing was a bit underwhelming. When can we see some real pics of this?

Are you doing something to balance the downforce @ front of the car?

FYI, it's a wing, not a spoiler. Z06's have spoilers. A Gurney flap ON a wing would be a spoiler..

Are you guys gonna wind tunnel test the new wing and front splitter to balance the aero load? Or are you doing CFD?

You can go ahead and let GM know lol: https://www.gmpartsgiant.com/parts/g...-23393222.html
