Default Cyber Gray Retainer

I was checking out C7s at local dealers via Chevy.com and saw a Cyber Gray that had a dealer installed Cyber Gray grille that looked really good. Has anyone seen this and exactly how do they install it? I knew it was going to be an option but though it would be from the factory.

I am just talking about the chrome bar. Taking the front end off sounds a bit scary......

RZ9 Grill, Painted Cyber Gray is a dealer installed option. If they can do it so can you. You will need to get under the car is my bet. Probably have to take off the bottom cover to get at the grill.

The chrome bar does not change with the cyber gray (RZ9) option.

A roll of 3/4 inch or 1 inch black vinyl stripe will fix it pretty easy.

Or plasti dip.

My dealer in Seattle area will install it for FREE to whomever I sell it to. Drive your C7 up here, go to a Seahawks game and get this limited production option from me.

You can always do it the way Glen did.

Default pics of the cyber grey grill RZ9;

here are the pics. Instructions from the GM factory included.
see my post under C7 for sale subsection.

Really is cyber grey; hint of bluish tint in daylight.

Factory part; great gift. Hint, hint. And you can plasti-dip the chrome strip before installing and not have to mask your C7
