Hey guys, I really need your help deciding. If money was not an issue, what rear diffuser AND rocker panels would you buy? I appreciate the help guys.

Personally I do not care for something because of its looks. I make decisions based on functionality. The Hivoc is the best looking one out there and I almost bought it but it rides a few inches lower so it has to trap air. I would go with the ZL1 parts which has over 100 hours of GM wind tunnel testing. MHO

Locally I do not know who would have it. It comes in gun metal color, don't you want to have it painted?

Looks-wise, the only rockers I'd choose over stock are the ZL1 rockers. I can't stand low side skirts or ground effects.

And as for the diffuser, looks-wise, the Havoc is probably the best looking one but like Angel said, it traps air and will impede your performance.

If you want to get an aftermarket diffuser where money is not an issue, the best one out there is Callaway since it is a true, functional diffuser and it looks pretty good too... but holy shit is it ever expensive:

Other than that, ZL1 diffuser.

Your only option is to get a pre-painted one overnighted. Won't be cheap.

Oh, and Angel... do you have any medium C5M shirts in stock?? Though they still fit just fine, I'm starting to lose interest in wearing small everything, lol.

I'd like to have it for Saturday/Sunday.

Form follows function indeed. I do have the Havoc but my intentions are different... aesthetics plays key roles for me and will soon add the new ACS T4 splitter but no rockers. Not a fan of over modding/styling neither on my own cars, just subtle touches and mods in good taste.

You won't be racing at triple digit speeds or driving aggressively fast at any time soon, right Mike?

The world of 5th gen Camaros doesn't always revolve around go-fast goodies especially on public roads. Go with what your instincts tell you to.. style points also count. The nice thing w/ the C5M crew is variety... different strokes for different folks.

Exceptionally well said.

And when is that? The only way I can make it is if it's kinda early since I want to leave earlier than usual.
