Factory Wing with AC CF Diffuser

Just finished install on my Anderson Composites Camaro ZL1 Carbon Fiber Rear Valance Diffuser. It was a bitch taking the bumper off but there is no other way to install it. I see why they recommend. There was a couple of times I was scratching my head. Just go slow and be gentle.......

I think it mates well with the Factory CF wing that I put on a couple of weeks ago. This is not a ZLE, but a ZL1. Still waiting on C7 Carbon Camaro ZL1 Carbon Fiber Front Splitter (6-8weeks). Everybody busy these days. Waiting on Corsa NPP with double X pipe 5 weeks and counting.

Still need to pull the trigger on CF side skirts. Whose are the best?

Looks great! Feel free to post more pics.

I’d just stay with Anderson on the skirts and splitter IMO.

I don't think they make CF slitter for the ZL1 non LE.

As far as I know no one makes side skirts for ZL1or Zle.....that's why I've left the splitter and rear alone unless I could get all to match.
Does look nice.....

How does the diffuser fit compared to factory as far as gaps go, I've only seen one of these installed on a ZL1 in person and there were some minor gaps at the rear of the diffuser where it wraps around the fenders right behind the rear tires. Basically, it appeared that the diffuser didn't quite fit as good as the factory diffuser, but wasn't that noticeable from 10ft away but standing right next to it, you could see it if you were looking for it. Then again, it could have just been his car or whoever installed his diffuser.

You are 100% correct. It actually fits perfectly tight everywhere except that one spot, but it is worth it because it looks much meaner than the stock diffuser.

If you don’t mind me asking where did you get the factory CF 1LE spoiler?

no one will ever make side skirts because the tabs would crack the carbon or the tabs would come off during install or taking them off. Not to mention 1/4 of the part would need to be painted to match car.

I gave trufiber the zl1 1le side skirts and they made a cover that badass for this very reason.

see them here!

I searched and searched and searched online trying to save some money because it is a tough sell to pay $5k for a spoiler . Finally a dealer in Arizona said there were several in California at a wholesaler that only the dealers had access to. I had just purchased the car two days before. I called the dealer, Stevens Creek Chevy in Jan Jose, CA, they sold it to me for $4500 and had it in the next day. I look at it like if I ordered it on the car it would have been $5500.

OMG thank you, this solves my CF side skirt issue. Not a cheap alternative at $599 + $165 shipping.
