We will have the dive planes (canards, but that's not the correct term)in stock for the 5th gen Camaro SS and Z/28 plus many other models. here is a look at the 6th gen models. NO drilling into the bumper or fender!!

Ooh awesome! Looking forward to seeing how they will look. Definitely something I’ve been thinking of putting on down the road.

I've been looking for some dive planes, hope you offer em for the 14-15s!

so with no drilling required, how do these mount? do you know how much these impact front end aero?

Since no drilling is required, I’d guess they’re being mounted with 3M double sided tape.

Edit: I was wrong, no 3M tape. From the OP: "they are mounted with a tab at the marker light and you drill a small hole into the driving light bezel"

I've considered a set of these but never found a company that can pull it off right enough to convince me. Hope you nail it! These may be in my future. ETA on the wait?

Some for the 5th gen ZL1 ;o)

Not in for looks but interested in how they function!

Curious to see how these turn out

Clarksroom · 02-05-2018, 07:54 PM

I would love to see a good set of these that look right on a 5th Gen. Like ^^^^ any time frame?

That's what I was thinking. Which would be a no-go for me.

I spend the majority of my driving time on highway >75 mph. I fear repeated wind stress would eventually tear those suckers right off.

Curious though if they even make them for the pre-refresh 5th gens. I could see them looking good on a 14/15, but I would like to see them on the early cars.

hammdo · 02-05-2018, 09:17 PM

I’m ok if we have to install them like the ZL1 1LE and use lock pins behind the bumper (small cuts to slide in the lock tabs)...

Yeah I feel ya. I guess we'll have to see what they say about how well they hold up in testing.

I've seen them on a few pre-refresh 5th gens and think they look good, but have to be paired with that track/race inspired theme.

I dig the idea of it being set up like that.
