that partition from corvette partz is by far the nicest looking and appears to fit very well...lot o dough tho....badmfr is hooking me up with a homemade one 
I'm the second owner and the car came with one. I never really gave it much thought until one day I was out shopping with my better half. She bought a frame that was too large for the trunk so we had to drop the partition to get the frame to fit...long story short, once I started the car I thought I had left the trunk open it was so loud compared to when the partition was up. Big difference. I ended up swapping the partition that came with the car for this one with a little Z16 CE "Bling"!

Here's a funny fitment ....B&B Bullets FIT in the trunk as do the stock TI's....almost perfectly I might add lol.
My B&B's broke and I love the loud growl but once I get them fixed (hanger broke) I am considering a partition.
(Can't wait to put em back on I can barely hear the TI's now that I've lived with B&B's for a year lol)
Who makes the lightest weight partition?

It was one of the first things I did to my car. I like the trunk being blocked off, but able to remove it if necessary. I think it reduced tire noise levels, improved radio/CD listening, and A/C cooling.
I bought a generic MDF carpeted partition (both sides).

I love golf and they fit in my trunk with the partiton in place. Just take your driver out of the bag!If I'm skiing then the Z's in the garage and I'm in the Tahoe or Ridgeline! A Z shouldn't be abused by driving on salt and sand covered roads.
What's next, a camper body for the trunk

The Ecklers is about the lightest out there, and is probably the best at killing noise!

Who has a partition along with say a stealth box in the back? I have a 10" sub in the stealth box, did it decrease or muffle the bass coming from the sub?

Mines been in for five years. One of the best mods I did . And there's the fact that it helps with the air conditioning too. Cools down a lot faster with the partition.

I just sold mine to another member but it worked great for me. To truly experience the difference it makes You have to drive with it in the car and then remove it and then go for a ride, thats when you really notice how effective they are. I purchased mine from corvettepartz.com I think they have the best looking partition. I reversed mine and had the carpet part showing on the inside and the plexiglass with emblem on the trunk side..

You will lose a little volume, but it will sound much better. W/o partition,at about 20 (volume), the rear quarters start to rattle. With it, I can go to 25. (yeah, yeah, sound deadening is my next project)

I bought a really nice partition from a fellow CFer. It helped a lot with the tire noise (GY F1s) and the HVAC works much better now, especially with the "greenhouse effect" in the sun. It will obviously come out on track days...

Didn't like it. Removed it from my 2004 z16.
Used for 1-day. Anyone interested in it? Can ship it out FAST.
(.. just didn't like the sound baffle it creates) (name-brand)
I like to hear ALL the noise the car has to give me. HAHAHA.
ZOOOOOM ZOOOOOOOOOM.
