FAQs

1. Are Corvette exterior parts easy to install?

Most basic parts like splitters, spoilers, and skirts are bolt-on or tape-on, but widebody kits may need professional help.

2. Will exterior mods affect my warranty?

Cosmetic mods typically won’t, but drilling or major structural changes might. Check with your dealer.

3. Can I use C7 parts on a C8 Corvette?

No — each generation has different dimensions and aerodynamics. Always confirm fitment.

4. Are carbon fiber parts worth it?

Yes, they’re lighter, stronger, and more premium-looking — but pricier than ABS/plastic.
