GM front ground effects issue

[JokerKojack]

Does anyone else have a v6 GFX front ground effects piece? I'm not happy with the fit and think its doing more harm then good. I can share pics but it don't fit right. Any ideas or pic from others who have it? I have two weeks to figure it out before new clear bra goes on.

Thanks

Maybe a picture to share would be good. What doesn't fit right? It's not the front piece for a V8, is it?

Pic not working... Idk

Ok in tapatalk.

[JokerKojack]

Yeah I think it worked.... As you can see I have a gap on both sides...

[JokerKojack]

I was told it was for a v6 but everyone that looks at it asks me the same question.

That's how mine was because it was installed at dealer and you will see a gap many times from other Camaro owners. If you didn't order the entire ground effects kit from the factory, the dealer normally installs the splitter. That is what I have been told and read up on from Camaro5.

It is important to make sure that all of the front attachment rivets are installed. There are 16 rivets used for the SS and 4 are installed with the fascia off the vehicle. There are 17 rivets used for the base model.

Do not use petroleum based cleaning products. If a strong cleaner is required use a 3M general purpose cleaners (P/N 08984). Tape will not adhere to a surface with residue left from petroleum based cleaning products.

Be sure to apply 15lbs of pressure to tape for proper wet out. After the kit has been installed the car should not be driven for 24 hours. The tape that is used during the installation of the front air dam must sit for 24 hours for complete adhesion.

Remember there are two different Ground Effect Kits available.

Part number 92207441 is only used on the base model Camaro
Part number 92208008 is only used on the SS model Camaro

Camaro Scotty on Modern Camaro posted the information above and this:

92243969 - V6
92243971 - V8
These are the LATEST part numbers from GM's new supplier. The MOST IMPORTANT thing with these is CORRECT INSTALLATION. Don't cut corners for installation. Remove the from fascia and affix the front piece with ALL of the retainers to assure a trouble-free installation!


Hope it helps.

Thanks for the info.. However I didn't install it Showstopper did. I didn't realize it was going to look like this. The passenger side is almost 1/2 inch out. It moves so much the lip going around the wheel well is damaging the car

[Skyfox]

Ask Pete to take a look at it. Maybe something came loose. It happens. Not on my car of course, but I heard it does.

[FreakyFastFreddie]

Is the part number on the piece somewhere so you can verify it's the right piece? That's the first thing I would do.

[JokerKojack]

Idk about the part number

Those are trouble areas on the v6 splitter as only double sided tape holds them in that area unlike the v8 one which uses brackets. I'm sure I could come up with a solution to make it look better.
