Can someone from GM or anyone else answer this?

Why is it that we can get the Heritage Grille, Ground Effects and the High Wing Spoiler in a base finish ready for paint. But the Dovetail Spoiler, Mud Flaps, Engine Covers, Interior Panel Replacements are only available in certain colors? This only perpetuates the the low selling cars selling even less when you don't offer accessory parts in those colors, nor a primed version at a lower price for those of us who want to get them painted to match our color. I really want the Dovetail spoiler, but I am not willing to pay that price for a painted spoiler to just spend more to repaint it.

Is there a plan to offer it in the other factory colors including Aqua Blue Metallic? Or at least a primed version like the High Wing Spoiler is?

Look at all the parts GMPP had to offer during the concept version of the Camaro and what is available now.GM is missing out on a lot of money by not producing these parts and they only offer painted parts in certain colors.I hear you,we hear you but is GM listening.......................

Yes it is frustrating. I really like the factory GFX as well but they are almost double what most aftermarket kits run. Plus if you paint them you void the warranty... I was told that an ABM or even an unpainted Dovetail may be available later. But I am not holding my breath considering nothing else has become avail in my color or unpainted yet. (That was originally offered in a color)
