You can make the tool your self for less than $5. We may make wicker bills for less than $100 soon and will include the install tool!

The Z/28 is just a race car, so the bolts do serve a function. Now on the ZL1 I can see not wanting them to show.

Its just a feature that I'm not a fan of. Its correct for a z28, but it would be an option that I would not get.

I agree with both of you, now to come up with a way to make it work :/ I can think of one, just wondering how it would look once its on the car, there would be no bolts showing, it would be strong and hold up fine since it'll be made of CF, but would need to make different models, one for the Z28, one for the ZL1. Will draw something up and see what everyone thinks...

I just purchased the Wickerbill from DJGrilles. It is their own design, specifically for the ZL1 spoiler I should have it next week some time. I will keep everyone posted on the quality, design, installation, etc.

As much of a stickler I am when it comes to model correctness, I also appreciate well done modifications and unique ideas. I welcome the opportunity to come up with a unique add on design for the ZL1.

I think this will be a better choice for the zl1 spoiler going to get one for mine too. Just read where this helped take 2 secondeds off a non z/28 camaro in the scca

It was not just the wickerbill it was the suspension that the driver stated gave them the advantage.
