Default Custom rear spoiler

So I found this company that makes C8 CF parts in Moldova (Tiny country in eastern Europe). The wing looks awesome (IMO). I think I've seen this type of wing on a Z06 prototype shots or designs - not really sure. Wondering if any US based companies are planning on making this type of a design.
All the photos on their website seem to be photoshopped so I have my doubts if these products really exist, but I would love to put that wing on my upcoming 2021 C8 HTC!

Made is a small country called Moldova (from the original Mission Impossible days?)!
The rear spoiler has two supports in the middle ... ideal for setting up a vibrations on the outer wings, like a tuning fork, that would create a lot of noise.
Also, at $2000 for the rear spoiler, it would be best to not have these made in Moldova but rather Bendova.

I guess GM would be aware of such issues, yet they are still testing similar spoiler design:

What would do about the two holes on the outside of either side of the rear fascia?

The only custom spoiler I've found, that is available for purchase, is this one from RSC



I will be ordering one for my car as soon as I get a VIN. (currently stuck at 3300)

They've already shipped a C8 to Moldova?

No!!!!!!! I have a 2021 non z51 HTC on order and I really love the design. Furthermore, I do believe that a likelihood of that company being a fraud is extremely high! Also, price is ridiculous and would never spend so much.
Nevertheless, I just love the design and hope someone in the USA would start making something similar.

BTW, yes I’m a newbie on this forum. I also am new to a corvette world...it’s kind of sad that I’m starting my first thread on the forum and immediately I’m being accused of being dishonest.

Deep breath, just as you are suspect of Moldova, members are suspect of new posters. It's not because there hasn't been reasons to doubt based on the past either. Just keep hanging out here and continue to post. Once you've been viewed as a solid member the accusations will stop.

Welcome to the forum. Some people like to rattle chains a little, mostly non-harmful, from my perspective. You’ll need a little thicker skin sometimes, but I’ve found most members I’ve dealt with in past posts are helpful and nice.

I contacted Corvettemods.com and asked them if they plan to make a low lip spoiler for the C8 and they indicated they hope to before the end of the year. Like you, I bought a Non-Z51 HTC to cruise in and not race/track. Those days are past me now, but I would like to add a small spoiler to finalize the look I want.

Isn't that just a Z51 spoiler with the ends cut off?

That's what I was just about to ask. It doesn't look bad at all, but it doesn't look that different either. Just my observation.

EDIT: To the OP - Machu, I would say welcome to the forum, except you've been a member longer than me! Cheers anyway!

Yes it does look similar, but it seems to be more subtle. In my eyes the z51 spoiler looks too heavy on an HTC. I guess it's just a personal preference.

Thank you GWHITE75! I hope corvettemods will start making lip spoiler for C8 (just in time for my baby).

how did you get the price quote? I asked them and don’t want the whole kit and they just were pretty rude to me for simply inquiring.

did you ever end up doing business with them?
