Default Aero bits for z06 that are not zr1 based?

I guess this comes from my history in the BMW world where I used to hate when every three series would put M3 things on their car. As a C6 owner, I refuse to put ZR1 parts on my Z06. So I ask, are there any front lips or spoilers that are available that are not copies of ZR1 parts?

I get it but the ZR1 splitter also came on the Z06 with the Z07 package from the factory. Most of the other front lips look like crap. There’s a few rear spoilers that look pretty good however.

All of the ZR1 Aero Bits came on the C6 Z07 and Carbon Editions.

Not all Aero Parts comes from the ZR1.

2012&2013 Z06/Z07 and ZR1/PDE comes with Full Width Spoiler and not the stepped ZR1 Spoiler. Also Z07 have another Front Deflector and not the one from ZR1.

I guess it all depends on how you do it and why, I could have bought a ZR1, but choose to get the Z06, the parts going on my car are not aftermarket copies, but original GM oem parts. I enjoy working on the car and making all of those changes myself. Also enjoy to see when people do not know what to make of it.. I tell them I have a one of one Z06....

The front splitter on a ZR1 and Z07 are the same design, both made of carbon fiber The ZR1 has a better quality finish with the clear, the Z07 is painted gloss black.

What's different about them? Mine looks exactly the same as any photos of the ZR1 underbody deflector.
