Ground effects rear diffuser

I’m still waiting on the ground effects kit and high wing spoiler for the 2023 1SS to arrive at the dealership. One thing I noticed about the ground effects kit was the rear encloses the exhaust tips, which I’m not too crazy about. Would it look weird if it only have the front splitter and side skirts installed?

I think that would look fine, I don't like the rear ground effect diffuser for the exact same reason...

Sweet. I’m going to ask them not to install the rear parts from the kit.

This may sound stupid but I get so paranoid the dealership will accidentally start drilling holes in my rear bumper since it’s part of the whole ground effects instruction guide. My plan is to just ask to throw all the parts we’re not installing in my trunk before they begin, I’m not sure if that’s excessive.

As far as thinking a dealer may screw things up as being excessive, I wouldn't think that at all, I would take every precaution to get what you want correctly, if a dealer can screw it up, they likely will...

Don't leave anything to chance...

You think a Florida Chevy dealership would give me an issue about hanging around the shop when they do the work?
