ZL1 1LE high wing farewell !

Here is the company that made the wing and other parts I believe they have some caddi and c8 contracts to.

Probably a good idea since they started charging 5k for it...bet they don't sell any except to Chevy...now that production is over I'd say they won't sell any....

How will someone whose wing is damaged get a replacement now? WIll this part still be manufactured to order, or it's the current leftover stock and once that is gone, people are out of luck and have to resort to a third party to produce a similar wing?

I would think you could order direct after patients are gone. The trifiber wing is identical other than stanchions being carbon fiber vs black plastic. I gave them my wing when I sold my zl1, most companies use 3d scanning on the car but, they don't see how to mount the wing or how the stanchions are made. So that's an option and better fit than aftermarket.

Good to see you back here, how is that new C8 treating you?

The viper ACR, and ZL1/1LE changed the performance arena on street driven vehicles aerodynamics.

Thanks for asking, started w c8 in Feb it was ok, good styling and pretty dang quick to 60. It was lacking in the upper mph and hp. Traded the stingray for a z06 c8 It's pretty amazing the grip is incredible and it's pretty dang fast on the highways. I've added the twin ported TB by soler, I have the high flow cats in the garage that phastek will install just after the 1st. Hopefully the venturi or JLT CAI will be ready with in 2 or 3 weeks.

The Car dyno'd 642 RWHP I'd like to be about 685 with the TBs, Cats, intake, and titanium exhaust that 50lbs lighter.

If this car was 3100 lbs it be even more unbelievable.
