427 with Katech aero parts
Just finished installing Katech carbon fiber rear spoiler, side skirts, and front splitter (with reinforcement). Parts all fit great and had very good fit and finish. It is noted that the stock 427 rear spoiler had 10 bolts fixing it to the rear deck while the Katech part had 4 and some adhesive. Obviously, in an open car, these pieces are likely mostly aesthetic but I preferred the exposed carbon look to the painted pieces GM offers on the 427.

Thanks. I agree that it would look better lowered. BUT.....It is my understanding that cars with the Magnetic Ride Control really cannot be lowered without seriously confusing the electronics of the suspension system. I'm not really interested in doing the pfadt system since this car rides so well with Magnetic Ride.
