New ts style front bumper painted and installed
these are pics of my bumper painted and installed... i had this bumper, front lip, ACI rear spoiler, fuel rail covers, fuse box cover and my c6 rear mudguards all painted. i also had the front corner lights, depo headlights and side markers tinted and had the complete car touched up and buffed..
complete bill from the body shop was $820 for everything...... pretty damn good deal i thought... there was alittle work 3-4 hours in the front bumper but was still WAYYYY cheaper than the orginal tigershark bumper...
bump this tread for a awesome seller and anyone who is thinking about buying this bumper better jump on the deal when its offered!!!! awesome price without the corvette tax!!!!...

first i would like to say i have nothing to do with the member that sells these or in any way. im just giving my accestment
of the product from my experense
purchased from member quik z06..
this is not a orginal tigershark. its a copy thats made of a mixture of fiberglass and plastic.. this bumper is sturdy and very strong.. its not like your normal fiberglass bumpers that are cheapy made and are so thin you can see through them..

Thanks Jay, your kind words are appreciated 
It look's great and im glad your happy with it. The original is a very nice piece, but is pretty much out of reach for most people (or in the "id rather do something else with that money category) But with this bumper, it fits very well, and at half the cost it's hard to go wrong. I should have my GB up shortly, as soon as they make me a Vendor

The bumper looks great, but I don't like it with those style headlights. Just my opinion but to me it looks like some kind of smiling cartoon character for a childrens book or video. Like Thomas the train. Overall I think your car looks great though.

I like it and want to be in on the group purchase, though I do not need the Chin Spoiler, I would have to raise my Vette to drive like I like and to get on the trailer for those track days

TS Bumper
I purchased one of these too, and should get it tomorrow . I know some people will be waiting to see more cars with this bumper to make sure the quality is there. Although I haven't received it yet, I can tell you my experience with Quik Z06 has been awesome! I ordered the Tigershark rear bumper from WCMC and the TS front from Quik Z06 almost the same day. The only communication I've received from WCMC is an e-mail with my invoice. I've asked for info about shipping, with no reply. I'm sure I'll get it, just being patient. Even after the sale, Quik Z06 has sent me pms every day or two letting me know about the shipping status, informing me about his & other's experiences with this bumper so far, etc. Overall he has been great, and I'm sure he'll help even more once I start to install this bumper.
So please make him a vendor already

ACI side skirts..
first fit of the bumper was not good, but after some adjusting and completely mounting it on the car it fit ok.. the center of the bumper was touching the hood and the rest of the hood line was like 1/2 inch grap.. some shaving of the center of the bumper brought the bumper up to close the gap.. im kinda a perfectionist and with having a aftermarket hood and headlights on my car so my gaps where alittle different if you had a stock hood and headlights.. the body shop added alittle fiberglass around the healight openings to close the gap and added alittle filler to the sides of the bumper where is meets the fenders so make the fit perfect..
its a 2 piece front bumper
but it will fit differently on everyones car depending if you have other aftermarket parts already like headlights and hood as i do
