Front shock spacers

My car never went through the PDI (Pre-delivery inspection), how can I find out if the spacers have been removed?

look at the springs around the front struts. Can see the spacers from a mile away.

Also make sure they installed the small winglets that go underneath the chin spoiler at each front corner.

Also, make sure they were put in the glove box. You will need them if your car needs to be towed.

Well....Just ran to the dealer as when I checked the spacers were still on! They immediately put it on a rack & removed them, computer shows that the PDI was done, not sure if I believe it but anyway. I do have them in the glove box & the small wings that go in front of tires are already on. Thanks to all that have jumped in.

Watch entrances to parking lots and driveways that have an incline. Its manageable, but still easy to grind the splitter on the entrance or exit. You almost have to have a planeed approach and not be in a rush to make some of them.

Thanks for the advice, I am new to the ZL1 world but have been in Corvettes for years, just traded my 2012 GS for this. I find that backing into my driveway/garage works best, when pulling out I hit the curb one wheel at a time. Thanks.

Congrats!!!! I love both camaros and vettes. You will really enjoy the ZL1. You will also get a lot of people looking at your car both driving, sitting at a light, or parked

What color?
