I bought the APR splitter before Katech had one available. It was the only choice at the time, other than the $1500 ZR1 piece. I haven't road raced the car with the aero mods yet. No idea if it will feel different, been too long since I did it last.
WOW i think that color is SWEET!!! That is the EXACT color ive always pictured on a vette. I just have never seen one. For it to be on a C6Z just made my day. ahhh where is the navigation!?!? lol i gotta ask.....
I have the Hood badges as well, ordered them the day I picked up my car. They look like should have been a factory item. As far as the Color goes when we bought ours there was a cyber grey and the new blade silver side by side and I picked the silver. The grey is the most popular color in 09 though. Car looks great with the wheels, not a fan of carbon (kinda ricer in my opinion) fiber but I do like the wing-more if it was flat black.

"Ricer" is an overused term. Ricers like to emulate actual performance cars by making them look like fast cars. The term shouldn't apply to actual performance cars. Carbon fiber came out first on world class cars, never on Hondas.
I actually modeled my Z06 as the "cheap" version of this car, appearance-wise:

Carbon fiber is not rice, FAKE carbon fiber is rice. People who think real carbon is rice, I mean WTF? You make 9 defend himself because he likes CF, hell it is probably the best stuff ever made for a car.
Oh, and BTW sweet car. Love the mods and the color.

Rice is carbon fiber graphics overlayed on plastic trim panels. It looks nice, but it's basically a sticker. Carbon fiber for structural purposes with lowest weight possible is what performance and racing is all about.
Again, I love your car Tony, I'd just remove the extra badges if it were me. Look at the Lambo, nice and smooth and only a bull on the hood. Again, that's my personal taste. Carbon fiber and gray go together really nicely.

great looking car. My bro just got that same color. I was so mad that they came out with that after I bought my machine silver one. Oh well I do like my color.
Noticed you blacked out the side lights, why not doing the tail lights too? I did mine and LOVE IT. Don't get bothered by cops either
