How much for a new fascia? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Mine has a crack in it.

Don't know if I hit something or not. Did pull into piled snow in a parking spot a couple of weeks ago but it was on the driver's side, this is on the passenger and I don't think it was severe enough to do this.

Anyone know how much they are and if it's a DIY kind of thing.

Well its DIY in the fact that if you have some mechanical ability and the right tools you could probably take it off yourself, but they don't come prepainted from GM. FYI that crack doesn't look all that bad really. It could be properly repaired by a good bodyshop.

Less than $300.00 No paint on the part.

SS FOR CRUZN · 01-18-2010, 07:47 PM

I was quoted $269.00 here locally, unpainted.

if you take it off its a perfect time to swap in the heritage grill!

Hope you're right about it could be repaired. I'd thought that it being basically plastic that the whole thing would have to be replaced. I hope not, I've got custom stripes that would have to be redone it that's the case.

If the shop uses a stiff backer behind the crack and uses the correct repair material you should have no problems.

to repair or replace?

RoyalKev · 01-19-2010, 11:05 AM

I would recomend replace on that because its in a high stress area, that saying if you do repair it the bondo or glue on it will crack from the flexing of re installing the bumper or even as simple as when your washing your car and you might put a little pressure on it.

RoyalKev · 01-19-2010, 11:08 AM

And im not sure if its correct or not I gotta call my gm parts suplier but on my estimating system that bumpers 357.59 with out paint and has over 4 hours for instalation.

Zombie maybe if you ask nicely 402 Motoring will repair it for you. At a price of course. He does great, and I mean GREAT, work. And they are super nice people at his shop. Its not far from us.
