Guess you got a z51? Sounds like the brake ducting for track use? Or the license plate holder?

A 2LT can still be a Z51.

If they look like this, then they are the Z51 rear lower brake ducts, only to be installed for track use:

It looks like those may be the "front lower air deflectors". They should have been installed.
