They look good and I could go for them @ $500 but $900 bucks is just too much to justify.... ( Could they could be done in a PC composite / plastic injection for half the price ? ) I'll have to wait and see if there's a price drop, or someone else does a more reasonably priced version.
I saw those fins since a year now on websites but $999 for carbon fiber and $899 for carbon flash not worth it all. Hope it will be much cheaper in future
@@ParagonPerformance I wasn’t questioning the composition per se. As much as I like the look, I can’t get them anyway since they won’t work with my exhaust. I think others have bigger concerns on cost than material. ijs
Only half of the nuts provided were lock nuts. Studs on fins 1 and 4 do not fit through the grill. They are spaced incorrectly. I will be retuning these.
Sure hope you are getting close to releasing similar for the Z06, of course with mods due to the four center tips on the Z! If not finalized, perhaps a little sharper edges, a touch more pointy for the Z.
I’ve been looking for these for my C8 but is it my understanding these WILL NOT work with the Lingenfelter by Corsa exhaust? Shame if that’s the case. Let me know one way or the other. Thanks!
@@ParagonPerformance damn shame! Any plans to accommodate the Borla/Corsa guys in the near future? Maybe a three fin deal that is two outboard fins and one center?
@@55Mrcry the OEM exhaust has that huge footlocker sitting back there which made me wonder how the Borla and Corsa which take up less space prevents this install.
@@ParagonPerformance the issues I had was that some of the threaded studs were crooked, one was too short, also the numbers at the top of the template were in reverse order & only one fin actually fit without issue, I had to cut the meshing to get the studs through...I was sent another set and was eventually able to make it all work...the template I found useless...I just followed the angle underneath...also the 1/4" drill bit in my opinion is a bit large I used a 13/16...I noticed in the video that the outer fins on both sides were a bit crooked...I measured my distances....way over priced for the quality...I could see sanding marks through the paint...one fine fell a few inches to the garage floor and the paint chipped....
Looks simple and easy w/ after market exhaust
Stock exhaust bumper is tight to reach your hand in between to put the nuts on I’m ordering me a set👍🏽

wow $899 for Carbon Flash I hope they go on sale Ill buy haha
They are salty for four pieces of plastic. Must be the Corvette Tax!🤣
@@josephdixon507 Plastic? These are 100% Carbon Fiber.

@@josephdixon507 I guess so haha
@@ParagonPerformance Carbon Fiber is just a Fancy kind of plastic. :)
They look good. But too expensive for what they are and where they go
Shouldn’t the carbon flash be cheaper then carbon fiber, I’ll buy it if it goes on sale.
Same price: $900 either way
It’s easy with a non factory exhaust. With the factory exhaust, the bumper has to be loosened up to reach behind to make the threads.

Will you be designing ones for the Z06 in the near future?
Sure hope you are getting close to releasing similar for the Z06, of course with mods due to the four center tips on the Z! If not finalized,
perhaps a little sharper edges, a touch more pointy for the Z.
We are still waiting for our Z06s so it’s going to be a little while.
Looks great but price is tough pill to swallow. Hopefully they go on sale for Black Friday
They didn't
NICE ! Plus you guys are in Iowa ! Go NORSE !
It seems everything for the corvette is double or more in price. Same thing for my mustang GT was $299. Pretty sick and silly.
These cars are also more money than a Mustang GT :) Good work isn't cheap, cheap work isn't good!
Hi, is there enough clearance to install on the ground?
Yup!
It's really a shame still no C8 rear diffuser option on the market I would buy..
Have you looked at the Verus Rear Diffuser?
Hmm, what's the additional weight?
Less than a gallon of fuel.
@@ParagonPerformance Hey, you can't beat that!
Are the fins placed on the factory stock rear diffuser? So essentially can drill holes on the stock rear bumper ?
No holes are required to be cut besides underneath for some screws.
Other than looking good, what do they add to performance, and I’m not trying to be obtuse, I would like to know. (C-6 owner)
The fins don't have any performance gains. You'd need a real diffuser like the Verus one.
I’ve been looking for these for my C8 but is it my understanding these WILL NOT work with the Lingenfelter by Corsa exhaust? Shame if that’s the case. Let me know one way or the other. Thanks!
You are correct they don't clear the Corsa or Borla Exhaust System.
Yup, same issue. Love the look of them, but they don’t clear the Corsa
@@ParagonPerformance damn shame! Any plans to accommodate the Borla/Corsa guys in the near future? Maybe a three fin deal that is two outboard fins and one center?
little trimming is required, they cut pretty good.well worth the trouble
@@peterszenkowski7769 details please
👍😎
lol $900 for 4 pieces of carbon fiber, what a rip off.
900 😂😂😂😂😂
I did this install, not exactly as easy peasy as shown here...I'll just leave my comment as that.
Which exhaust system do you have?
@@ParagonPerformance OEM
@@55Mrcry the OEM exhaust has that huge footlocker sitting back there which made me wonder how the Borla and Corsa which take up less space prevents this install.
@@55Mrcry Yea the OEM Muffler takes up a lot of space. We've installed them with OEM exhausts and you're right it is harder but still possible.
