Looking to buy Z06, most likely will buy one without Aero Package, can that be added after? Does Chevy sell separately? And would you simply remove current tail and replace with new one? Anyone do this yet? Don’t want to make new holes or other that will cause permanent damage

Holes don't cause damage, they just need to be covered. And the tail/bumper is the same--just different wings/splitters/etc.

Most all of the Z07 aero bits can be added later. What you can't retrofit is the changes to the suspension.

Based at my time last week at Ron Fellows school, the Z51 is beyond amazing, I’d say on par with my Porsche 718 GT4, and the Z06 has 30% stiffer suspension, so I think the suspension will be good enough for my needs. The aero however will make a huge difference, that rear downforce is amazing.

Take a look on You Tube - Horsepower Obsessed (Name of you tuber) has a non aero Z06 and he added aftermarket that looks damn near perfect like OEM. So it can be done as long as you get quality parts and have a qualified person do the install.

Hope this helps - Good Luck.

ya, very cool. This is probably what I will end up doing, stock Z06 and do adds later.
