The drainage section of the extractor.

Where does it drain? Does the sinister hood match up with zl1 bumper bulge?

I've been reading through all pages but some points still aren't clear.


1) I have a 1LT/RS, so I guess the foglights will fit in the upper part. If I only want those one, will the wiring be long enough? Or do I need to order the new wires?

2) Is the first page the exact list? Insurance is paying for a new bumper, so I guess they will also pay for plastic stuff/nuts/bolts require to reassemble original bumper. Is the list of hardware on the forum the complete list, or only the difference between stock bumper?

3) Can we do without side flares?

4) To recap, as it is, if we already have a complete 1LT/RS assembly, do we need all of this or some of it is already in place?
1: #22831868 Fascia List price is and you need it. $430.27
2: #22895338 R Bezel List price is and you need it. $20.09
3: #22895339 L Bezel List price is and you need it. $20.09
4: #22894223 Lower Grill List price is and you need it. $124.92
5: #20952857 Support List price is and you need it. $96.55
6: #20952853 Absorber List price is and you need it. $101.15

Harware
1: #11610157 pkg of 10 Nuts List price is and you need it. $4.39 per
2: #11570637 pkg of 20 Bolt List price is and you need it. $3.51 per
3: #92231490 pkg of 10 rivets list price is and you need it. $1.94 per

Electrical / light
1: #22840497 Harness List price is and you need it. $38.67
2: #10335108 Lamp and you need 2 (Ebay)
3: #20957334 DRL Retainer and you need 2
4: #22790487 Lamp and you need 2
5: #22685052 Adjuster and you need 2 and this comes with the lights from e-bay.
6: #13582913 and you need 2 bulb's


5) If we already have a 1LT, is the 22790487/22685052 lamp the stock one? Or is it the other one? That ain't clear

1.) If you do not want the fog lights and just the DRLs keep the wiring harness you have now.

2.)First page is the most up to date parts list needed to do the install. They will pay for rivets and thats about it. Make sure to tell them that to because the adjuster tends to leave them off the estimate sheet.

3.) The side Extensions are needed for install.

4.) You need everything on the Body parts section list and the side extensions LH and RH.
You need all the hardware on the list, your insurance will pay for the rivets, since they are needing to be replaced along with your damaged bumper.
You don't need anything in the light section if you are only keeping your DRLs, except the DRL retainer LH RH to hold the DRLs in place.

5.)If you are not getting the Fog lamps then you do not need to worry about these.

If you want the fog lamps you need the ZL1 wiring harness and everything in the Lamps section.

Drains down and pours off to the space between the radiator and engine down to the ground.

So if we want to keep the DRL as is, we can just plug it in like before.

That's what I would do, and install the small ebay fog light without plugging it in just to fill in the gap.

For the extension, I tought I read elsewhere on this thread that you could do the install without them. If I could spare that 150$ i'd do it...

That makes sense! lol would hate to have to repaint that lower piece. But I would definitly paint the lower splitter but leave the grill itself black. I think it would match the car better if you had GFX which ill be getting soon.

Does the front bumper paint match or is it just the flash making it look brighter than the factory paint.
