Got most of the parts now.....I guess I didn't do my research very well.....I'm wracking my brain......
So the ZL1 1LE front spoiler has what I call an "apron", the "ramp" that leads up to the bottom of the 1LE lower grille and covers what was body color on a ZL1 non 1LE. It has tabs that slot into slots on the lower grille.
The 1LE splitter has a decent semi gloss sheen.....maybe a tad more shine than a matte finish, and I like it because of the winglets (they also have 1 tab that would require cutting a slot in the fender (some have just cut this tab off), but the 1LE grill has a REALLY rough texture....I mean it could almost have a grit rating like sandpaper and has NO sheen looks like flat plastic with a texture.....
Now one option.....and I'm guessing here because I haven't started pulling stuff off yet.....would be to keep the stock upper and lower grille and CUT the tabs off the "apron" of the 1LE splitter and go that route.
The other option would be to paint the 1LE grille and possibly the splitter or just the grille.
Either way, the painted parts will take the same abuse as the stock ZL1 parts on the car now.
OR......put everything on like it came out the box (my car is white).
And lastly......I won't even go into the dive plane issue....because that kinda depends on which direction I go with the other parts.......smdh....I'm either really overthinking this or nuts.....or BOTH.....thanks for listening.....

From what you are seeing could you do the 1LE upper and lower and keep the non 1LE front splitter? like does the area the 1LE splitter clip into the 1LE lower stick out where it can be easily seen on the car?
