I really think some of you guy want there to be an issue.....lol What kind of motivation could you possible have? I suppose since I was looking at a V6 and it was a different facia anyway that could be why it did not crack too. So out of curiosity and wanting to get to the bottom of this I went and looked at on myself. At least I took the initiative to do so before posting that there are issues and saying something negitive that is pure speculation. 9Ball at least was there and he reported what he saw and speculated as to the cause. One thing that I also noticed from his report and other pics was "This is a production car" I would love to know the Vin # because when I viewed the pics and then edited them to focus on the front facia specifically, I noticed the paint mismatch that was previously noted in pre-production models. I could not blow it up enough to view the vin myself but I also noticed the strange tag right where CTF cars were marked (lower drivers side windshield). Bottom line here is I for one am not going to freak out. If there is a problem GM will make it right for us. By the way....no I did not shake it violently....lol I should have taken a airboat on my trailer and created a 150mph wind but that was not practical. At the end of the day, I feel very confident that the front end is solid and well engineered and free of manufacturing defects. This is not the first plastic facia that GM or the manufacturer has built and I do not feel that this is the problem.
