That's a real ****** thing to do. That effects there pay. Give the guys who did a good job what they deserve, and put in the comments what you didn't like.
That way it gets seen by GM and the dealership and not penalize the guys who did a good job. A bad survey doesn't effect GM, it effects the salespeople.
I know at our dealership if we get a bad survey they take 10% of my check for 3 months.

Everyone's taste is different. I think that the body colored vents look good with certain colors. Torch Red and Arctic White are two of them. I have Shark Gray and thought that there needed to be a little contrast so didn't order it that way. Anyway, this car looks great with the body colored vents (Oh, and the chrome wheels look good on the car too).

I don't understand why the dealer didn't just order the right vents and install them on the car.
I ordered Body Colored Z06 vents for my Laguna Blue Z51 coupe and installed them per the instructions on this forum.
Seems like better and less costly resolution all around.

the salesperson is going to take the biggest hit. He doesn't have any control over the situation either. No clue why they wouldn't go the extra mile knowing this survey is at stake. That's not how it's done in these parts.

Would not want dealer to paint or install just me. Factory paint last longer if they paint existing vents and they chip guess what color shows thru. Lots of chances to scratch paint doing all vents.

Nope best box to check I'd leave them alone, and not mess with pulling panels off. All the black pieces make it look cheap and gaudy IMHO, breaks up flow of car lines too much. Why in the world would you want those ugly black bits here and there, pasted on as an after thought.

I know they take those surveys seriously. In the last few cars I have bought the sales guy has BEGGED me to give them the highest marks possible and has said, every time, tat if I could not to please PLEASE give them a chance to "make it right" by talking to them about it first.
And that's a problem because GM is not getting good data. It's being coerced.
