Well the pic won't upload but let's just say the splitter doesn't hold up too well to eating cones. Lol
IMHO the choice of material by GM on the front lip is horrendous. It is incredibly hard/brittle. It would hold up much better if it was a more flexible material.

It's pretty hard to spot these when the car is on the ground, due to the SS-1LE 20" wheels and low clearance.
Was there a noticeable difference when you removed yours?
I swear mine didn't lower at all and bythe looks of the blocks it should have lowered about an inch

Mine were left in when I bought my car about 300 miles from home. Didn't find it till around 400 miles.

As for the 1" drop, you won't notice until you drive it down the road and the suspension settles without them in there. You won't notice upon pulling the jack after removing them.

I didn’t notice mine was left on until I put after market wheels on. Didn’t notice any adjustments until I got home it was close to an inch

You need to jack the car up to relieve pressure from the springs.

1. If we don't have them from our delivery of the car should we be asking the dealer for them?, are they ever needed again?

2. Is there any harm if they were left on for x miles?

Thanks!

Remember when gm uses the spacers, they overinflate the tire pressure as well...check all tires after delivery.

Mine were left on as well.

In addition, I did not get my rear control arm covers.

Anybody got a part number for those??
