I thought about ordering the OEM one and got a great price from a dealer on the forum, but I really didn't want to spend that kind of money on a wing.
Had an order in with Next Gen Speed, but they couldn't deliver in the time frame they claimed.
Now C7 Carbon is on the clock.
Hope you have better luck with c7 than I did, the one I got didn’t make it to the car.

So I'm cancelling which she was understanding and even said I know it's early in the morning but I can't make any sense of this. I'm going to order and take my chance with the EOS ZL1 1LE Gloss Black Spoiler. Sorry guys
I ordered a EOS ZL1 1LE Gloss Black Spoiler. It should be delivered today. They have several in stock ready to ship.

If you could please post pics of everything the way it comes out of the box. If I'm not mistaken, this one is plastic.

If I was a gambling man I would say this is where the Anderson's wing comes from. http://www.screambodykit.com/view.php?ID=481
Check out the diffuser look familiar on that car even though its the page about the wing. Anderson's uses carbon post/stanchions that mate like the oem some wings attach to the stanchions with 4 exposed screws. little details like this and keyboard I can track down where this stuff comes from.

And what about carbon doors.. not many people are going to dabble with the doors..

I've talked to CWS but them seem fishy I think there a trade company not the maker of the products I could be wrong but I get that vibe. ( A trade company is a middle man posing as a manufacture prices are a tad higher!)


I know its hard to trust people especially in China but hell this stuff is all made in China If you notice Anderson's sister company is seibon carbon. Which is manufactured or based in china.

I did a lot of business with the Chinese bought 1000s of dollars in Brushless motors, Foam and composite jets, servos, Lipo batteries, and speed controllers. I never got scammed but also I all ways searched for the maker of the items to get the best prices. You have to weed through the middle man a lot to find the actual manufacture. It takes a keen eye to see the difference of a copy made from a copy. anyhow I come to trust 3 makers of carbon if I was going to buy direct and for go the wait!

Instagram: @saboncarbon if you want to check out there work.

Sabon's Wing is pretty impressive just you need there carbon trunk to go with it since the holes will not line up perfectly to the oem holes... they were totally honest up front about this. I believe this is what's happening to the wings that are imported lately the companies that went on line to resale these items just assumed the holes matched and the wing would sit flush. You can get a wing and trunk for the same price as a wing from here. just FYI.. See quote..

I sent my LPE carbon scoop to be made by SAbon and got a hell of a good quote.. The weave on the LPE doesn't match the twill on the car plus I can get some made for people with the Edelbrock.

Supertechnics and screamingbodykits seem pretty reliable as well.


Trufiber should make this wing just, I couldn't give up my wing to copy. It was to expensive to part with.. and was no guarantee to get it back in perfect condition since the winglets would have to be pulled off to make to make the mold.


I think some of these companies are 3D SCANNING the wings vs old school making a mold from the oem part and this is why there are fitment issues.


A little off topic but hopefully it gives you some choices and something to think about.

seibon anderson composities carbon creations vis all pretty much made overseas we used to own some of the factories that made the products and some of them were super nice some of them were straight up junk but its a huge market and not many players at least in the us

My EOS ZL1 1LE Gloss Black Spoiler has been delayed in shipment for the 2nd time. No shipment date at this time. Fedex put it in "Pending"

I've been tossing around the idea of putting the AC wing back on the car. It looks a bit better than the next gen wing IMO. I stood behind the car with the AC wing and found that it's about 1.5 - 2 inches longer than the next gen wing on each side. Both look good, but I prefer the looks of AC's wing even though it's cracked in several places.
