Minor Stripe "chipping": warranty? Fix? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jakefeb3 · 12-19-2009, 01:06 PM

I have a few tiny "chips" or holes in my front stripes. Probably from gravel from trucks. What are my options? Will/can the dealer fix this? Does the warranty apply at all? Any info would be great. I don't want to have them painted on just yet. I may want to get a custom hood later

i doubt t, it would be more around " tear and wear damage"
I have a few small ones, i just let it go now. The best thing to do would have been to get the clear bra on. But if your going to change the hood. Dont worry about it. Just when you get your new hood, paint the stripes or get vynil but be sure to have it 3m clear bra'd including the bumper

I got the extra coverage on paint, decals , wheels, glass and tint from the dealer when I bought it because I have never put decals on a car before and was concerned about how they would hold up or what would happen if I ever decided to remove them. Don't remember if it was 6 year/75k miles with the extended GMPP warranty or lifetime. I know tint was lifetime. Am sure I paid extra for it, so was not part of factory warranty

Stripes are not covered under factory warranty. Its part of normal wear and tear. Installing a clear bra will help... so wait til you get your new hood and then go for it.

See if it covers road hazard damage..it should be a section on what is and is not covered.
