Default Anyone have LPOs delayed?

So the good news is I got my C8. The not as good news is that the LPO's were delayed.
The Black Trident Wheels showed up but the carbon high wing did not.
Is anyone else waiting on their carbon high wing LPO?

So far no one at GM has responded to my dealer's inquiry so we are in the dark. Probably because of the factory shutdown.

Thanks for the information. My c8 was delivered March 23rd to California so it was likely delivered shorty after yours. VIN 1756. Looks like you will get yours a few days ahead of me. Good luck. Hopefully we get them soon.

Picked up artic white car on Friday, no AW high wing spoiler, and no info provided to dealership on when it will ship.

Sucks because dealer was not local to me.

My dealer also isn't local to me but they said they would ship it to my local dealer and transfer their installation fee to my local dealer to make it easy for everyone once it comes in. You should ask the dealer you bought it from to do the same. I wonder if GM makes the part or gets it from a supplier? If from a supplier it could explain why it didn't ship with or around the same time as the car. If a supplier makes it, hopefully, they make it through these difficult economic times.

My guess, apparently the Manufacturer of the High Wing is not considered "essential".
