Inside look at installing Carbon Fiber on a ZL1 1LE

A while back I swapped out the Grille, Canards, Canard inserts and splitter with Anderson Composites carbon fiber, here is the footage I just uploaded, maybe it can help someone on the fence of doing it?

I keep going back and forth on doing this. It looks good, I may just end up doing it.

it's really not tough at all. I did open up some holes to fit better but that's about it.

Use the code: "Demon" when you order to save some money, message me if you wanted any helping guidance on any of the steps.

Watching your video it seems pretty simple and I have taken my front bumper off before to install the APR front splitter.

I added the 1le aero to my zl1. I did the cf canards and air ducts. The grill and splitter are oem that I had paint matched.



As much ad I love the look, id prob not go cf again since I do race the car. The amount of rock chips in the clear coat is depressing.

Very cool, surprised to see they dont make the running boards to match.

I forget who posted it, but someone talked with Anderson about that and they said because mounting holes/tabs are so close to the edge, there was a good chance it would break/snap.

Nice video on the install. Good tip in the comments about using popsicle sticks.
