This has been beaten to death... It will not be covered and probably not worth the energy that is starting to churn here...

Wrong.

It has been covered. Paint is covered under the Bumper to Bumper warranty for defects in material or workmanship. Painting the fascias the wrong color is a defect. Seen it covered countless times when I worked in a dealership.

You might want to look at the memo from GM on the issue from 2010. They will not cover it. Good luck though. I would love to know how it turns out.

My rear bumper and gas cover are slightly off (darker) but I figure they will fade in sooner or later. No one else but me has ever noticed this, so I am OK with it.

The bulletin is on a "perceived" mismatch between the doors and rear quarter panel. Which is truly a perception of being off due to the light angle, but those panels are in fact the exact same shade and were painted at the same time with the rest of the body.

The fascias are a different issue with an actual paint mismatch. Painted by a supplier, that apparently can't match the IBM paint master card very well.

That's called a defect, and my car is covered for defects.

If they don't want to fix it, my question would be - how important are JD Power scores to you. Survey just landed in my mailbox this week. If those scores are important, the plant can ship my dealer some fascias that match the car. Assuming that Oshawa and Chevrolet wants their new vehicles out there to be top quality.
