Has anyone seen video or picture (not renders) of 5VM Ground Effects installed on the C8? I am trying to figure out what the front splitter looks like with the 5VM pacakge, is it visible CF?

Yes, 5VM is visible carbon fiber front splitter and visible carbon fiber extended rocker, e.g., the following (best pictures we yet have). Having seen vis CF on the C7’s splitter and Rickover skirts, it looks much better than below, looking excellent if you are vis CF fan.
However, what you are seeing in the last of the three pictures is additionally the visible carbon fiber grille.

I love the visible CF rockers, but for 5000 smackers, they sure aren't cheap.Bob Sliwa

Thank you John!! Great photos! It looks awesome with 5VM. Although I know aftermarket will be cheaper, I will order mine with 5VM.Originally posted by John View Post

I would say $1,000-$1,500 less for quality after market parts. For C7 Z06, Caravaggio CF ground effects was $1,000 cheaper than GM. Then you had to pay for installation.Originally posted by Meldoon View PostComment

I have decided against Z51 mainly due to rear spoiler. Now when I use the configurator. I can add the visible CF side rockers, but when I try to add the front splitter under the Ground Effects, if forces me to select the high wing.
I would like to get the visible CF front splitter and visible CF side rockers but not the high wing. Is that doable?Comment
