Installed more stuff tonight... took the front facia off to make it easy. Figured I could install the Z06 screens in the OEM manner, but I guess you have to drill the lower part of the front bumper openings, because they sure don't use the holes of the coupe/vert shrouds. Ended using the "velcro method" and am glad I did... I can pull them out when needed to fiddle w/ the fogs etc.

I'm in love w/ my air tools... specifically my "stubby" 1/4" drive air ratchet. Last time I did this by hand, tonight it was a breeze using air.


Build sheet was in the bumper bar as expected...



Used the existing foglight srew to mount the ballast and zip-tied the wires nice and neat. Can't belive how cheap HIDs have gotten and how small the ballasts are. Last set I had in my old Specter Werkes C5-R lights was over $300 and the ballast was way bigger



4300K HIDs are great... I don't even need to use the headlights anymore.


The stock foglight lenses have a wonderful cutoff


New diamond cut turn signals, front bumper and brake duct screens and side cove screens...




G'night,

Normally I'm not a fan of screen in vents, but in the front at least, they look like they really clean up it up. I don't know about the sides, but I like the front.

The main screens are OEM Z06 parts, the brake duct and side cove screens are the same screen GM uses, but from an aftermarket vendor obviously. Wheels will tie the polished screens all together.

do the screens come in black as well? as flite said the front screens look good but the screens on the side look kind of out of place.

Yeah some places offer them powdercoated. A 5 or 6 years back I painted the screns on my yellow car black. I'll take a side shot farther back... the wheels will tie it all together.

Nice thing is that they were $20 and just stick in... takes about 5 min per side to get access to them.

i like the screens
was it just a hole there before??

The cove ws "open" but there were black plastic shrouds that blocked air from getting into the engine bay and to the air intake. The main bumper screens are what comes from the factory on Z06s.

A few pics out in the sun...

I was going to say this as well but they don't stick out as much as one would think, in the daylight.
