Sigala Designs Debuts C8 Corvette Z06 Forged Carbon Fiber Aero Package
Known for its wild C8RR widebody kit, Sigala is back with a C8 Corvette Z06 forged carbon fiber aero package that’s a suitable OEM replacement.
Sigala Designs has long been known for producing some of the wilder body kits available for a number of different models, ranging from Corvettes to pickups to Lamborghinis. However, its rise to fame was largely aided by its utterly wild C8RR widebody kit for the C8, which – depending on who you ask – is either the most audacious such offering on the planet, or a cool kit that transforms the mid-engine machine into something that looks more like a Lambo. Now, those that own a C8 Corvette Z06 can also get in on that particular game, because Sigala has rolled out a new forged carbon fiber aero package for that LT6-powered machine, too.
The true appeal of this kit is it offers a suitable upgrade for owners that weren’t able to secure the constrained yet coveted factory aero package, as it includes a host of goodies finished in that lightweight material – a three-piece front splitter, dive planes, side skirts, and a high wing rear spoiler. It also isn’t terribly expensive, with a retail price of $6,999.99, while installation by the company itself takes around seven hours and adds another $2,900-$3,200 – but the installation team will travel to you, which is pretty awesome.
There’s just one problem, of course – to install this kit on a C8 Corvette Z06, you’re going to be essentially destroying your stock bodywork. As we can see in the build video, Sigala has to completely remove the body panels from the car, and if you have the factory low wing spoiler, it’s even worse. That’s because this particular piece uses a whopping 10 mounting holes, which means that owners can either pay to have those things filled, or use Sigala’s hole cover option, which costs $250 and adds a panel to cover those holes.
Either way, it’s easy to see the appeal of this particular kit, at least for those that don’t mind letting someone hack up their ride in the name of securing the same type of aero package that perhaps they wanted, but couldn’t get from GM thanks to high demand and low supply. There’s no denying that these pieces look great – which is a big reason why so many covet them, even if they don’t ever plan on taking their car to the track. For that reason, we can see plenty of owners plunking down the $10k or so to have it done.
