Front splitter scraping lowered C7
 

Full slam/stock bolts...unpainted GM poverty splitter.
4.5" center clearance...4" on trailing edges
I'm now used to the sound of occasional scraping...GM splitter flexes enough to avoid critical damage. Scraping occurs on steeper entrance approaches/departures. I use a dremel to shave the scaped bottom edge. :thumbs:
I've seen numerous/costly/rigid C7 splitters ruined by impact damage with finishes compromised by scraping/road grit.
Be aware that any splitter will eventually sustain damage.

Ok.

Beautiful car! I am on this forum often, and I have never seen that ride before- anymore pics?:rock::D

Did your ignore option quit workin'? :lolg:

No - you are not that bad. :cheers::cheers:

My C6 scraped all the time, I had to replace my air dam, it was so bad. The C7, as it arrived from the factory, isn't bad but still will scrape occasionally. Boils down to; like the lowered look and scrape away or raise the suspension (factory recommended height) and enjoy the ride. I am enjoying the ride, that is what I bought the car for.

Now you did it.....:)

"I thought of another random topic to post pics of my car, oh and none of the pics have anything to do with my thread topic!!!"

It's okay to use this:

I have a 15 z06/07 with stage 3 aero and have not had it lowered.

I have been driving the new generations since the c4...

Over 4000 miles on new z and zero scrapes. Just lots of thinking ahead...

And if there is justice in this world my smug attitude with be quickly rebuffed with a full on splitter catastrophe this weekend....; )

Btw in Canada these things are so rare your would never hear anyone say the wheel gaps are too big. They are too focused on the sweetness of the car itself.

It is like meeting Kate Upton in a bikini and noting the colour of her sandals...

When ya least expect it :smash:
OEM carbon fiber = $$$$
Z06 at the dealer 2 weeks ago with left side CFV splitter/skirt damage...unrepairable :ack:
Dude nailed a chunk of truck tire on the 401

Absolutely love your car Jake! My goalie school is in windsor in a few weeks at WFCU centre so maybe I can meet you and see the beaut in person...

I have a couple more stage 1 splitters when a raccoon or speed bump finally KOs my stage 3....

Nor have I... :lol:

You've got to learn to take steep drives, dips and speed bumps on an angle to avoid scraping.

I've had an exposed CF splitter on my GS for a couple of years now, and also installed one on the wife's Stingray as soon as we got it home last year. Angles will keep them intact and avoid having to replace them often, especially when the car is slammed.

The C7 looks great!

So, you lowered your car(which is already low enough) and now your splitter scrapes. Oh my. Duh.

That'd be cool...ya bringin' the Z?
We'll get some pics. :rofl:

Where do you get those caps? I love them.
