Will this fit if I have the Z06 or Grand Sport variant?

This bumper is designed for the base model. Z06, ZR1, and Grand Sport versions require modification to fit. Verify your specific model variant before ordering, and plan for custom drilling or reinforcement work if you're running one of those packages.

Do I need to remove the bumper sensor cutouts before installation?

Check your OEM bumper sensor hole locations before mounting this cover. If your vehicle has sensors that don't align with the Z Style openings, you'll need to carefully enlarge or reposition the cutouts to match your existing hardware. Verify sensor placement on your current bumper first.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand and prep the surface according to your paint system's requirements. Once prepped and painted, test fit on the car to confirm hood and fender alignment before final fastening. Any gaps at the lower valance should be minimal with factory mounting points, but check fitment in natural light before sealing everything up.
