I was thinking the same, and I'm not so sure. The cutaway that I saw of the Z06 seemed to show a lot of structure in the center of the rear that the wind bolts to. I haven't seen anything like that on the Stingray. But I haven't been able to find a good cutaway or picture of a naked Stingray rear end either.

Curious, were you able to find anything out about this? I am wanting this exact high wing on my stingray but am not sure how this would work or when this wing will be available..?

I have a feeling that like the C7 ZR1, the C8 Z07 high wing bolts directly to the chassis under that rear bumper cover....

Aahh that would make sense, I assume we wont see this available until after the Z06 release which is unfortunate for me. I just cant get over that wing!

The new Z06 wing does look really good - if it can be adapted to the base car that would be a bonus.

I’m really hoping that some aftermarket company releases this. I’d buy it.
