Question about the plastic front fascia
Just curious, don't ask why, is the plastic front fascia painted on or off the vehicle?
In other words, say you had to have a new one put on your BRAND @#$%&! NEW GLE, would they put a black one on and paint it? Or do they have new ones in Polar White sitting on the shelf?
And yes, the plastic is black underneath...
Grrrr...
(it was the wife, not me...)

Are you talking about the Bumper Cover - or can you post a quick pic here ?
A "collsion center" under insurance will often bid the Full-Monty - the flip side is a bumper-repair-mobile guy often can do wonders - for that much better if you have non-metallic paint since it's hard-takes-experience for proper metallic matching/look
Keep the beat !

Every plastic part I've ordered (spoilers, fenders flares, lower spoilers) are always a basic color and I've had to have them painted. I've even had to paint the black ones.
