Rear Spoiler options/Suggestions

I really want to do the 1LE carbon wing but its just too Tall for a street car. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a spoiler that mounts in the factory location? id really like a lower profile carbon spoiler but haven't seen any yet. even a bill style would be cool.

Any info is appreciated!

When you see it in person, it's really not that tall...not like an APR wing or something equivalent. When you look at it compared to the roofline of the 6th gen, it's seems fine, but everyone has there preferences, I guess. The only thing holding me back from pulling the trigger on one is the cost...

have you seen the Renick Performance carbon spoiler? looks pretty cool and reasonably priced. the factory wing is a lot of coin, but for any other manufacturer, it would be double or triple the price.

That looks pretty cool, kind of Nascar style spoiler. I have seen many similar spoilers. I like it, but it is not quite my style...I guess. The carbon fiber APR wings are quite a bit cheaper than the ZL1 1LE factory wing, but unfortunately they do not make a specific one for a 6th Gen, so if I tried to go that route, I am going to have exposed holes in my trunk. I have not seen many Carbon Fiber Spoilers more expensive than this one. The factory ZL1 1LE wing just fits better, but I appreciate the options

The ACS looks sweet. Cost and did it bolt right up to factory holes without issue?

I bought this one primer and had it painted. The raw spoiler was 569. It bolts right up to the factory holes. The only problem is it takes 45 minutes to use fishing wire to get under the double sided tape holding the factory one on to get it off. Dont try to yank on it without doing that or it will crease the trunk or rip the paint off with it.

Any pics from the front and front 1/4 looking back?

I was worried that it was too "skinny" (not passing the body lines like OEM) that it wouldn't look as good on the ZL1 as it does on the SS.

I had this same dilemma. I really didn't like the factory ZL1 spoiler and had planned to swap it out. It's kind of grown on me though, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

I like the ACS, but RPI makes another decent option. Though it seems that you need to enlarge some mounting holes and possibly add some more. https://www.rpidesigns.com/shop/item...-rear-spoiler/

C7 carbon has one in development that I'm waiting to see.
