Such an easy tutorial as you explain everything. Other people just put it on and say stuff but you show us, thanks. Cant wait to get a Camaro and come back to this video😂

[@FollowMyLine17]

Thank you! Glad it could help!

[@Cryptoinvestor-pv4fy]

Good looking wing, loved the detailed instructions.

[@FollowMyLine17]

Thanks!

[@Mikeselchow]

Glad to know there’s another zl1 in Minnesota. I’ve only seen 1 other and it was a convertible

[@c4sare4kiddos]

What color was it

[@Mikeselchow]

@@c4sare4kiddos it was black. I have the radiant red tint coat

[@FollowMyLine17]

There is a silver convertible in the Waconia area too.

[@Mikeselchow]

I see mustangs,chargers & challengers all day. It’s nice to see that Camaros are harder to come by

[@c4sare4kiddos]

@@FollowMyLine17 I have the satin steel vert, diff state tho. There’s so many different gm silver” paint codes tho so it’s hard to tell even for me, lighting ppf cleaning etc make it look different where I confuse it with some ppl online/ irl who have the different paint codes of that silver or gray. I think I have never seen Arctic blue or silver or whatever they call it irl on any trim and that’s it.

[@matt-ts8cx]

Lools good, glad mine came with this! I like the black post on the stock one better than the carbon fiber post. I might just be use to the stock version but the carbon fiber post look out of place.

[@FollowMyLine17]

I love the carbon posts on this wing, but I think I’d take one either way!

[@RacingforALS]

Great video. Having done this myself, a big warning is to not drop the nuts into the body of the trunk lid. You can do this by taping the socket to the nut or lowering the lid enough that they will fall free. Otherwise, you may have to fish them out with a magnet.

[@FollowMyLine17]

Great call out. I think I had it in the original cuts, but it didn’t make the final video. I did use a magnet to grab the factory nuts out and put them on.

[@RacingforALS]

@@FollowMyLine17 Knowing is half the battle. 😁😁

[@RacingforALS]

Additionally, 50% iso alcohol works better than detail spray for removing adhesive and is paint safe.

[@FollowMyLine17]

I was using a plastic blade and the eraser wheel to remove the adhesive, so I wanted more lubricity. I actually hit it up with IPA as a final step before I installed the new spoiler.

[@fearless798]

I've been thinking about adding this wing to my ss

[@FollowMyLine17]

Do it! You won’t regret it.

[@fearless798]

@@FollowMyLine17 did you have any issues with extra holes in your trunk ?

[@FollowMyLine17]

@@fearless798 well we added this wing to a ZL1. You said SS so I a regular SS should use the same holes. If it’s an SS 1LE, you’ll have a bunch of extra holes, and then you’ll have to drill the new ones for the ZL1 1LE wing.

[@luisosorio8954]

I have an LT RS I want to put the same spoiler on it but I don't know how to cover the holes left by the previous spoiler. What do you recommend?

[@FollowMyLine17]

The best way is to try to find a trunk lid without a spoiler or with the standard SS, or ZL1 spoiler from 2018+, which has the reinforced braces within and have it painted. 2016 and 2017 do not. Otherwise you could have a body shop fill the holes. Otherwise you could just use some plastic plugs and paint them to match: amzn.to/3JyQsbE

[@mohamedelsherbiny7570]

Can you tell me what the dimensions of the screws in the mounts are?

[@FollowMyLine17]

Which dimensions are you referring to? Each screw in each post, or from post to post?

[@BeatTheD3viL]

hey... forgot to show the roof top rear view camera view before and aftere wing install. Great video, nevertheless. Cheers.

[@FollowMyLine17]

With the camera angle all the way down, on the furthest out camera view, you can see the wing. In the mid setting, you can barely see the top of the wing at the very bottom of the mirror, and at the closest zoom setting, you can’t see the wing at all.

[@P-Dawg-01]

Nice job and nice looking wing! What did it do to your rear view camera view?

[@FollowMyLine17]

Zoomed all the way out, you can see the top of the wing across the bottom third of the screen. Mid zoom it’s just barely across the bottom and zoomed all the way in, it’s not in view at all.

[@P-Dawg-01]

@FollowMyLine17 OK awesome! Thank you for the info! Did the new wing have 3M adhesive to secure as well as cushion the supports of the wing to your trunk lid?

[@FollowMyLine17]

@@P-Dawg-01 it came with foam tape

[@FromDust81]

Did the new wing come with adhesive tape? And to loosen the old wing adhesive what did you use?

[@FollowMyLine17]

The new wing came with adhesive foam. To get the old stuff off I used a plastic scraping blade and a 3M adhesive removal wheel attached to a drill.

[@chains6558]

I got the regular ZL1 to avoid the ricer looking wing.

[@FollowMyLine17]

Ok

[@the_terrorizer]

Ricer????? Son you're stupid

[@Ssmith1221]

Does anyone know if you could put this wing on an rs?

[@FollowMyLine17]

You can put the wing on anything. In the video I show you how to use the indexing post. Does your RS have the post spoiler, blade spoiler, or no spoiler?

[@appel199]

I would like to put this wing on a convertible ZL1. Any suggestions on what to do with the wing mounted camera that comes on the convertible?

[@FollowMyLine17]

Wildhammer sells a 1LE style spoiler with a camera hole in it. It is made by EOS, so it’s a bit different than this one, but in 2019 the rear view camera on the ZL1 1LE was in the spoiler itself. If you use the wildhammer link in the description, you can then search the shop for it.

[@appel199]

Awesome. I should be taking delivery of my 2023 rapid blue ZL1 convertible very shortly. The only thing it's missing is the performance data recorder. Any suggestions on a good one with camera I can add? Thank you very much.

Thanks. Just so bummed that one PDR option is not on the car. But really looking forward to getting the car. tho.

[@FollowMyLine17]

@appel199 ​​⁠stay tuned… I’m working with some folks on an OEM retrofit option. Late 2024 hopefully.

[@georgedavis319]

Is your original spoiler for sale

[@FollowMyLine17]

It is not for sale, sorry

It’s a ratchet brother, not a wrench
