Congrats. Is that a factory splitter and side skirts or did you have the dealer install aftermarket?

They are the OEM GM carbon flash, I purchased them from Chris at GMPD and had the local GM dealer install them before I picked up the car.

You mind me asking how much extra the dealer charged for install. I'm doing the exact same thing. In my mind they shouldn't charge for front splitter since they would have to install the z51 splitter anyways

 

[Jack Raccoon!]

Ask them and see how that works out for you...

$683, and they did charge for the front splitter, but I do agree with you and I will make a call tomorrow to the service dept. I don't know if it will do any good but I will give it a try.

Let us know how much they credit back to your credit card..

Hello all
just like thousands before me I finally received my new C8. I picked it up yesterday in St. Catharines. Thankfully it was a dry and clear day and I had the opportunity to drive it around a little bit. So like any proud new father i thought i would post a few pics here. I hope everyone has a great, short winter.

Hi , nice car. Do you plan on taking it to the track? 1/4 mile. I know Jack will want to here , if any wheel hop!

 

[Ian M]

Thank you, no plans for the track or strip right now.

Good heavens no ! Not the dreaded wheel hop .

For those that were asking about being charged twice for the installation of the front splitter. The service manager at the dealership and I went back and forth several times, but I held my ground and I will be receiving a refund cheque for $180 + HST. The equates to 1 hour labour. So if anyone else is planning on doing the same thing, I would suggest getting it resolved with the service dept before they touch your car. I remember the day when they used to post the mechanic's hourly rate in the service dept, they don't do that anymore and unless you look really closely, you wouldn't easily see it on your bill either. Have a good day all. Spring is coming.
