I knew this would happen:

Transport guy was having a tough time with the car...and this is the aftermath.

I put this on mine, I don't worry about scrapes anymore.

I may definitely look into it.

I don't scrape often, but I knew loading it into the hauler was going to be fun.

Did you put your spring blocks in that came with the car?

1LE. Doesn't come with them.

Getnlwr · 04-25-2019, 08:33 PM

How hard are the spring blocks to get in anyway?

Sakudog · 04-25-2019, 08:49 PM

That is like a $30 dollar part though, no worries.

Mine came delivered like that from factory, not as bad but at least it can’t be seen. Still a pissoff

This looks very interesting.

Very kool . . I scrape everyday coming out of my driveway.

Good to know there is a fix

Those air deflectors are pretty cheap. I replaced mine a while back ago

I get a kick out of products like this.
Back when the 5th gen ZL1 came out, IIRC ZL1Addons came out with a washer kit for the front spoiler that was meant to use some very nice machined and countersunk washers as a wear surface.

Yes they give you a wear surface, but at the same time, they reduce your ground clearance that was the cause of th escrapes to begin with. ??

I would assume the front splitter is more than $30.

I was thinking the same exact thing. Adding that skid plate to the very front of the splitter will reduce ground clearance which will cause you to scrape more frequently. The added lack of ground clearance can cause the spliter/bumper to flex or get hung up on the pavement (if you're backing the car) causing damage to the mounting surfaces.

I think he was referring to the rubber air deflectors.

At least it's not visible and it's not a metal part that will rust.

I would still be annoyed about it like you are.
