A fellow Z brother had the body side molding broken on his Z we ordered a new part and painted however upon installing last night we realized it was not going to fit. Are these parts different according to the year? Or maybe coupe to vert? I didn’t know that there was a difference. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Daniel

There is a difference between the standard Vette (LH part # 10174901) and the ZR-1 (LH part # 10174881).

Do you know which GM part # you purchased?

Kevin,

I sure don't...

Great.... :thumbsdo:
I'll just repair the old one and repaint. Hopefully that will look good.

LT1/LT4 are shorter than the LT5 dog leg moldings.

I've got them if you need them, but looks like you'll be able to repair.
