if the bumper wasn't baked at 300 degrees look into PPF or expect a respray in 3 years time.

The SS bumper looks better. The ZL1 grill always looked like buck teeth to me.

But why all the effort? The reason ZL1 bumper looks better on the ZL1 is because it is wider to match the wider fenders. On a regular ss, it looks out of place. Now if you go all wide body kit then you can blend in but it’s pretty penny.

If it was a 2016-2018 I agree, but anything is better than the 2019. It was one of the best designs they've ever created, then they threw a truck bumper on it for some unknown reason...

I’m sure I’m in the minority but I prefer the 19 to the 20 and newer that bumper in general is ugly but the black atleast makes it fade out better. Agreed 16-18 look best

I would check as a warranty covers defect and a rock chip may not be considered a defect. If not covered I agree with previous poster get some ppf

Glad you like it. For what it’s worth I do too.
