Deciding on Spoiler vendor....need feedback
 
I'm looking at several carbon fiber spoilers and I'm curious if anyone has any experience with the following 2 in the area of quality and fitment, and support/service :

TrueFiber : https://trufiber.com/shop/2014-2016-...-rear-spoiler/

C7 Carbon : http://www.c7carbon.com/z51-c7-carbo...-spoiler-p-492

Bump.

I would look at ACS, I don't know about the 2 vendor's you listed but, I upgraded my C7 Z51 with Stage 3 Spoiler and it bolted right on with out any drilling. I know some spoilers require you to drill a hole(s) and I tried to avoid that . . .

Here is the link to ACS: https://acscomposite.com/

Picture of my Stage 3 . . . I hope this helps . . they have a solid product.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had not considered a more aggressive spoiler. I'm leaning more toward the z51 in carbon fiber since I have the z51 spoiler now.

The lower priced one is carbon fiber laid over another plastic or composite material. I've a question out the manufacturer of the other to find out about it's composition and 'bolt-ability' (look ma, I made up a new word!).

I may end up going with the APR one but I'm really after finding the right one and not necessarily the most expensive or cheapest one.

So, I ended up going with the apr spoiler. Now the lead-time waiting...

While I'm waiting, my thoughts turn to tail light bezel. The choice is hydro or real carbon fiber. Since it's not a prominent part, I'm wondering if the difference in pattern look would be noticed with a real carbon fiber spoiler, and in the future a real carbon fiber diffuser if I went with hydro.

If the hydro dipping is good, you'd be hard pressed to tell on that bezel. Have you looked at autodynamicswest . com? They might have that bezel, their prices seem pretty competitive too.

Wise choice.

I have the APR version 2 track pack. Beautiful spoiler and perfect fitment.
