How did I miss this... Old Jedi knew exactly what we wanted to see here..

Looks like the Rockers and aero are all flat black and not painted and cleared like the 17 Z

Mlee, there is a little sheen to the black splitter and side skirts so not a true 'flat' black but totally different from the gloss black used on the ZL1. Maybe a semi-flat color.

Yep! Designers consider it "satin" black...the rear diffuser, front splitter, side skirts, and mirrors are all painted this color. The dive planes and grill are "exposed plastic"....

I can tell you I'll probably be painting those to match, asap...

Thanks again, OldJedi...I find myself constantly looking back at these...

My pleasure, but you did most of the work posting the pictures. The time will pass quickly. Think of it as a pre-fest present for all of your work.

I really like the gloss black ones on mine now. Huge improvement over the 5th Gen.

The gloss black gives is a much more "expensive" look.

I wonder how PPF is going to work with "Satin".

I have satin vinyl hash marks on the 2014...I've put a polymer-based sealant on them along with the rest of the car...they become a more glossy than normal, but they don't "shine", or spot, or stain...I'm hoping, with the correct, even application, the same will be true of these parts.

Can anyone remind me of the wheel specs on this car? I know they're 19" and run 325/305s, but how about width of the wheels? And anyone know if we'll be able to fit a similar wheel size/tire size combo on 2017 ZL1s that are not 1LEs?

Doubtful regarding the fitment due to the differences between the 2 different suspensions.

Wheels are 11 front and 12 inches rear wide...."One inch wider than the standard ZL1"....IIRC, not interchangeable with standard ZL1...
