But you know how things go with the tuning industry, as some customers are never pleased and seek more upgrades for their cars while tuning firms are waiting to take their money for whatever mods they offer.

Inescapably, this brings us to a wonder material, synonym with sportienss and performance these days, namely carbon fiber. But the thing is, a factory-boosted performance model like the Corvette C7 Z06 only brings more attention from tuners, and this is where APR Performance comes into play.

According to Corvette Online, APR Performance came up with a new carbon fiber line dedicated to the Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06.

The same source spoke with APR officials and found out that “APR Performance design meets race-proven technology, making the C7 light, lean, and aggressive". So it's not all about the looks; function is also an important aspect here.

In other words, APR's carbon fiber components are designed to either create additional downforce or minimize drag. Yeah, we know, by now you'll want to find out what components APR offers for the Corvette C7 Z06, so we came up with the list below. As we said, all the components are made of carbon fiber:

– 3-piece Front Splitter / Air Dam
– Bumper Canards / Spats
– Side Rocker Extensions
– Rear Diffuser
– Rear Deck Spoiler
– Side Mirrors
– Hood Vent
– Front Fender Vents
– Rear Quarter Panel Vents

We don't know about you, but when it comes to discrete, good-looking and also efficient components for a car of the same calibre as the Chevy Corvette C7 Z06, it's hard to say no. Add carbon fiber into the mix and you have every chance to put together a succesfful recipe. But don't just take our word for it and have a look at the pictures in the photo gallery.
