Just installed the ASC wickerbill on my 1LE yesterday, and adding the front splitter with support rods this morning. Wickerbill install was pretty straight forward, a lot of measure twice, drill once kind of stuff. Price for the kit was good, and heard and saw good results from other members. Check out their website. The owner is very easy to work with and helpful!

Hitting the track Saturday, so hopefully will notice some difference.

Could you take some pix of where and how you mounted the support rods and how hard it is???

Depending on your height adjustment you can feel it on the highway at higher speeds. I also have the Aero Sports Concepts wickerbill on my ZL1. It was definitely felt when I tracked my ZL1.

One thing I noticed after installing the wickerbill on my car is that the car slows much more quickly when just letting off the gas at highway speeds. It also makes the mileage worse...not that any of us bought this car for its economy, but it's worth noting. I probably would take it off if I were going to take it on a road trip.

Slightly higher now, price went up month or two ago. I keep debating whether to get one or not. When they run out of these you'll never get one.

I have the ACS spoiler and the ZL1 concepts wicker bill and I love it makes the car look so much better than the standard spoiler

Vern is one of many customers that can verify the Performance Gains in Rear Downforce from such a small Add-On part. We all can't afford Windtunnel data like the Big Boys but we Test all of our products on Track and Street use before we release them to the public.

Sure the Wicker creates more Drag. That's what's designed to do. Ya you'll loose a mile or two per gallon if you have it up. This is one Reason we made most of our Wicker Kits adjustable to minimize that effect when not In Use



If anyone else would like more info please free to contact us.

After installing the wickerbill and the front splitter extension, I took it for a test drive on the surface street and highway.nthere definitely is a noticable difference! I couldn't test the differences in traction, but clearly noticed a difference in steering feel. The car felt more planted. I expect a noticable difference at the track Saturday. If you track your car, well worth the cost!
