I don't precut any of the panels, just the stripes. I have a few low key inlays/seems, the bumper mouth has one, the side coves are a few pieces, and the rear bumper is 2 pieced (line on the rear to side transition).

All years are good ones as long as you have no problems. I have an 05 and love it.

I am calling THAT report total . I've had my 2007 Z06 since 2009 and I have had '0' issues with it other than the self inflicted mods I have done to it.

The poorly written article should've been your first clue that it was not a reliable source. Find the lowest mileage, newest version with the options you want.

My 2013 was purchased new October 12,2012 and (knock on wood) has been very dependable and trouble free.
