Don't get it prepainted, it will not match. You have to have it painted with the car present

I picked up a pre painted grille for my Silverado from them and a year later the paint is flaking off. They did not primer it, just threw paint on plastic. It looked great when I got it, but it's coming off in the spring to be repainted.

Absolutely not, polypropylene is a pretty subpar quality piece of plastic.
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=395322 Here's a member's ZL1 front fascia, fitment looks pretty bad. But hey... you get what you pay for, etc.etc. |

If you're looking to have the paint match i recommend just getting the zl1 bumper from someone like Rogers Chevrolet on camaro5. Messages Maureen or Becky. I ordered my ZL1 bumper swap from them painted and received it with a100% accurate paint match. (Inferno orange Metallic)
Buy it right the first time or end up having spending more money trying to fix it.

I bought zl1 bumper off eBay no problem. I'm actually in the market for one now. The problem with that bumper is the upper grill doesn't come out which is a problem for me because I have a Heritage Grill that I want replacing in the bumper.

The only way its going to be a perfect fit and match will be if you buy the OEM ZL1 Fascia. Otherwise, you risk paying the same or even more on a cheaper part to make it fit right.
I paid a bit over twice as much as the one you're showing from ebay, had Gary paint it to match and it fit like a glove... paint matched perfectly, and it was an easy swap. I've ready horror stories about others who went the cheaper way only to pay much more than what I paid for for mine. Highly recommend Gary's Custom. You can search this site for more detail on that. |
