Help With: Side Mirror Z51 Carbon Flash

GAHDOOSH · 02-07-2014, 03:07 PM

I just ordered my 2014 2LT in Arctic White and my dealer was able to get me the carbon flash Z51 spoiler, however they were not able to get the carbon flash mirrors.

Is this a painted part or simply a vinyl overlay?
I'm hoping it's a vinyl and I can order it...

If you know more, ordering links would be GREATLY appreciated.

From my research it looks like it's carbon flash painted, no vinyl overlay... So I would likely have to order them from GM
Can anyone confirm?

Carbon flash is a paint, nothing special, any body shop can match and spray it. Take the mirrors off and get it done, simple job.

Glen e · 02-07-2014, 06:38 PM

Wait, how do you get spoiler and not mirrors? I thought it was a package?

GB EB · 02-07-2014, 06:53 PM

paint.... and I agree with the above.... it's a package.... I got it. Spoiler and mirrors CF for only $100 what a bargain!

It's a Z51 package... but I checked with two dealers and in the 1,2,and 3lt you can only get the spoiler

When you order carbon flash, both the mirrors and the spoiler is painted carbon flash. There is no ordering code where you get one without the other, that I've heard of. Those dealers are wrong are you misunderstood them. Do you have a copy of your order?
Go on the Chevy site and do a build and you will see that the carbon flash code covers both.

Here's what can be officially ordered (see the C7 Order Guide):

For Z51-equipped only Stingrays, you can add RPO "TTV": Carbon Flash Metallic painted Spoiler & Mirrors for $100.

For non-Z51 only (base) Stingrays, you can add RPO/LPO "5ZV": Carbon Flash Metallic painted Z51-style Spoiler only. $495? or 595? (I can't recall exact price).

OP stated in his second post that he ordered a Z51, so your first instance is what should apply to him. This was my reasoning for asking if he/she has a copy of order to look at.

Yup, that's why I posted that to show the difference between... as stated we need to see the OP's order sheet to further assist.

Sorry guys I wish I had chimed in sooner, been very busy with work.

Just to confirm, I was not able to get a Z51 order allocation. I ordered a Arctic White 2014 2LT and among the many other options I got, my dealer was able to get just the Z51 styled spoiler which as user "Stingray" noted was the Carbon Flash Metallic painted Z51-style Spoiler only (no painted mirrors) for $595.00

Glen e, I would be very interested in how you had your stuff paint matched to the carbon flash style. Do you have a paint code available for that? I could remove my mirrors and have the guys that are painting my rims do my mirrors as well.

Thanks for all your help everyone!

Looks great!
I posted on that thread about the paint, but where did you go to grab carbon flash paint and how much did it cost you?

Thanks
