Those things are definatley needed on this car.

I wonder what was more of a determining factor not including them on the 1LE, cost or tryng to keep the car seperate from a ZL1?

Yeah I'm thinking a Vert spoiler is going to find it's way onto mine. NEVRL8 is on the right track with that car. I'm looking to do that except the spoiler will be satin like the original one.

Hands down the best option to finish the look of the car and personalize it without drawing too much attention. It looks like it belongs vs drawing attention to the sideskirt itself. Most wont even know what is different but they will know something is different.

ya, i was thinknig of the back trim (the zl1 defuser wraps around ) and since i dont have npp, i can add a quad tips or skip... gonna skip. (for now)

Until the price comes down or a better option comes out, I will skip also. The rear diffuser runs close to $500 with shipping. That's crazy to me.

They don't look "bad" either way just my observation and opinion. Please don't think I'm hating on them they will look great on your car! Are you going to do the ZL1 diffuser? Anyway heres a pick of mine...

did you Add exhaust heat shields, AND rear energy absorber or just buy the diffuser.

Thanks! I went back and forth between black or red on the spoiler, I even started a poll on here. Black won, but I thought I could always plastidip it black and still have red if I wanted it. Actually I'm thinking of diping the wheels and spoiler soon. At least until I can save up for some better wheels.

Yes it has the exhaust shields. I didn't need the energy absorber since mine is a '13 it already has the same absorber as a ZL1. The mounting holes are already there.

This is good info. I didn't know that it worked like that. You just saved me some money.
