So I was reviewing the PL Luxury Reviews Video a few times and thinking ahead to my 2021 in the spring. Inquiring on your thoughts and input. Not necessarily my mod suggestion(s) but any mod you have completed or one you may be thinking about.
Let's start with an overall pic from the video
The Carbon Fiber Splitter
Rear spoiler post is upcoming later. Pic to show the CF closeup.
Your thoughts...

Regarding the splitter shown in post #1...
ebay description is C8 Front Splitter, Carbon Fiber Spoiler Lip RSC
$1515. + $125 shipping.
corvettemods.com has a 3-piece design that duplicates OEM but in carbon fiber
$350 free shipping
Stock OEM GM parts are 3-piece design included in Z51 package.
per chevypartshq.com
part #84661549, 550 and 551 consist of the 3-piece f/end kit
their price for the p# 84661549 for instance appears to be $53
There are other splitter/spoiler sources. Does not sound like the RSC shown is very cost-effective. Esp not for a non Z51 car.
RSC does have an interesting rear spoiler that fits the holes of the Z51 OEM. For this non Z51 application you can use 3M VHB tape to secure it. The 3M tape is available in 4 different thicknesses. This rear carbon fiber spoiler is said to fit really well. Ebay has the C8 Rear Spoiler Carbon Fiber by RSC priced at $1420 + $75 shipping
OK here is a mod I can afford for my cash only 1LT. I'm leaning towards the Adrenaline Red seats in lieu of all jet black interior. A no cost option. Exterior will be Torch Red as things stand now. Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic a close second. Have yet to see either in person.
What's needed is some red in the aftermarket floor mats. Either outer trim in red as shown below or the entire floor mat in red like I had in my C5 Z06. Good to have red stitching w/the 1LT and the red centered in uppr steering wheel.

Here is my 3TL HTC - Torch Red , Adrenaline Red Seats , EBay for the Red Floor Mats $140. My TPW is 12/14 hope to have the C-8 delivered by mid to late January
I would order anything that you want right now... most everything is on back order.. I am waiting on wheels, high wing, side skirts and front splitter... hopefully it will be in by February.
Agree. BD 25 wheels (shown earlier) have arrived and waiting in the bathtub for the car to be built soon.
To hold me over till the car arrives I got one of these today v v v $13 @ CVS's Carvana display - 1/24 scale
Took it outside today and deleted the wing, re-attached the tag, and waxed it. Amazing detail. A bargain @ MSRP 13.00
Will have to wait for the big one to arrive for the front radiator mesh install mod. Don't think this little model will benefit from that.
So here for my to do list is https://forums.corvetteforum.com/sho....php?t=4481224

I like the rsc spoiler but not the splitter. My rsc spoiler should be delivered tomorrow and I'll put it on this weekend.
My wheels should be ready this week too.
Car is already lowered.
Still waiting on my carbon fiber 5vm aero stuff to ship.
Once I have everything installed it will be off to the shop for vinyl wrap on the roof and rear plus tinting and ceramic.
@CitznFish I am looking to do a similar roof wrap when I get my car too. Would you mind answering the following questions please? Either through here or DM.
1) How much is he quoting for the wrap?
2) Do you know which manufacture and color code he’s using?
Thanks!!!

3M-1080 G212, Black Gloss Metallic is the best choice.
