Has anyone purchased new from Classic Industries? Spoiler, Ground Effects, Nose, Bumper, ect... My Rockers are all broken up underneath. Changing out a lot of panels...Anyone had any issues with quality or fitment?

Re: Z28 Ground Effects/ Body Panels OER

Got a fender.... scrap. junk. not even close. I am kinda in the same boat with the front nose/skirt and lower gf. I have talked to other people here and they have had good luck with classic. so maybe my fender was a fluke. Please post if you pull the trigger and let us know how they fit. Good luck mang.

(EDIT) It wasn't a gm obviously. cheap one. (70 bucks)

Re: Z28 Ground Effects/ Body Panels OER

i bought the pair of OER fiberglass rocker panel ground effects from classic industries... returned them instantly... the fitment was horrible, not to mention there were no holes drilled or anything, you would have to highly modify them to fit. and thats coming from a body man lol.... id suggest used oem rocker ground effects on eBay, thats what i did.......

As far as the front bumper/front bumper ground effects.... the OER lower ground effect for the front bumper is half decent... you will have to drill holes, but they at least line up pretty close (not 100%) with the holes on the bumper. If you need the bumper cover itself.. GM does still have them available, if you have a gm parts source, i have no experience with any aftermarket front bumper covers...

I also did buy an OER rear bumper... fitment was surprisingly good! painting it was the issue... the material it is made from holds a lot of oils in it, very tough to get it all cleaned out of the bumper.... i had to paint it a few times to get the "fisheyes" to stay down , even after proper cleansing. but it looks good now! lol...... good luck , hope this helps a lil!
