GM - Come on ! A piece of cheap square foam....
OK this bugs me EVERYTIME I pop the hood ! Is there anything to replace it with that looks, well more "like" a car part!!! That's like the moment my buddy said " you can fix everything with duct tape" !!

I mean no disrespect, but seriously, does this really bother you?
That is so minuscule in the grand scheme of things. |

My ZL1 is from the first production run in October of 2016. There was never a little foam piece in the engine bay like you have.
It must have been added in later production runs because I've seen the foam on other ZL1s.

You rip that piece of foam off and the engine blows, don't come crying to us. We told you so!

Mine has it. It looks like a filter for a diaphragm actuator that takes in air. I would NOT remove it.

where did you get the carbon fiber air filter cover? That looks very nice.
