Today I washed my new Z06 for the first time. After I put it back in the garage, this was on the driveway. I've looked and don't see where it belongs. Any idea where its from?
thanks

Look at your lower rear valance and see if one of the mesh grilles are missing

Looks like an exact fit to what allot of us paid for in our rock guards for rear rock protection. Only ACS had them when I was shopping for rock guards. It appears that the mesh cut out behind the rear wheel was not punched out and you happened to dislodge it during your wash. I would check the other side to see if its still there. If so. YOu have have probably found gold. There are a bunch of DIY's on this forum whom would love that mesh to append to their rock guards as they may have not purchesed ACS rock guards. The link below will show you what I'm talking about.

Np. If you have both of them I would keep them for yourself or someone whom wants to add to thier rock guards. I have the ACS rock guards and i highly recommend them. Those screens keep the rocks from going through that vent and chipping the paint. Enjoy your ride.
