2013 1LE front splitter - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

ssmike · 11-28-2017, 09:19 PM

Does anyone know if the 2013 1LE's came with a front splitter or was it an option? I'm looking at a 1LE but there's no splitter. Everything else is right, wheels, painted calipers, hood wrap, suede steering wheel, etc. I want to make sure this is a true 1LE. Thanks!

Yes, they come with the car, but dealer installs. Pop the trunk, lift the mat on the left side and snap a pic of the factory sticker. Post it here, we'll help you confirm

Check the RPO codes to see if it's a real 1LE optioned car.

Look at the steering shaft and see if it is "white". Only 1LE's have the white steering shaft.

What is the RPO code for a 1LE? I might be able to see the car on Friday depending on my work schedule.

Should have a splitter, someone may have damaged it on a curb and they took it off. A new one is 600 bucks plus installation, negotiate that in price.

Well that’s easy enough!

Can we tell by the vin #? I have that. 2G1FT1EWXD9217788
I hope to be able to swing by to look at it on my way home from Ohio to Buffalo tomorrow if all goes well.

No, there is no way to discern the 1LE option package via simply looking at the VIN. If a dealership checks the VIN, they can pull a build sheet for the VIN and find the RPO codes that way.

Here's my trunk RPO codes. Note 1LE at bottom.

Ok cool! At least now I know what to look for. Hopefully I can check the car out tomorrow!

And check if there are holes on the bottom of the front bumper. See if it was ripped out or if indeed never installed. Work that splitter into the deal. The 13 splitters are outrageously expensive.

not even sure they are available anymore. aftermarket easier. I think when i replaced mine, it was one of 2 avail.

Thanks everyone for your help but the car I was interested in was sold before I could get a look at it! At least now I know what to look for!
