Cost of Rear Facia-Installation Difficulty - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Some idiot clipped the drivers side of my rear facia. A local body shop did a great job repairing and looks great but was wondering how much a new one would cost? Difficulty to install?

Thanks,
Stephen

It comes off pretty easy. Don't know were the link is but I did mine to change to body kit. The sides make a pop sound when it comes loos and almos made me sh# t myself. Good luck!!

LOL... the pop clip things GM uses to attach front and rear fascias always makes me nervous. I've pulled the front end from more than a few of my GM rides and I still feel like I'm gonna snap something in half when I start pulling it.

So far so good... nothing broken, but still has some serious "pucker factor"

Some at 50$ on Ebay, but you might call some dealers that has some take offs when installing GFX kits and throw them away,,,,

As for taking off make sure you use some PLASTIC tools. Some are easy to take off others needs to take the full bumper off but it's a easy job to do, take about 1/2 hurs all together.

Might as weel install SS diffuser. Lokks better and if uoy ad some exhausts they will fit better.
