A corvette that had its bumper cover and hood replaced do to the car rollling when in the persons garage.
The car is for sale at a dealership. I asked if anything else had been replaced, they said the paint matches perfectly but because the vette is fiberglass a paint meter doesn't work.
Is this true that you can't use paint meters on corvettes?
A regular paint meter will not work- there are ones specifically used for plastic bumpers/body panels, etc..they run about 2 grand, so finding a body shop or individual with one can be tough.
The bumpers are painted off site by a vendor and flex agent is used. Retired GM employee.

Sorry, but you are wrong. The front and rear facia's ARE painted in house at the corvette plant. Roof and headlights are painted somewhere else.....and Dupont does make flex additive (2350S)
