Default 2011 GTS front spoiler lip part #?

Does anyone know the part # for a 2011 GTS unpainted/unprimed front spoiler lip?

I know they have a primed one at Suncoast but is there a part number for one that doesn’t get painted, like the one that was originally on my car?

I can’t find the part in anywhere in PET.
Thanks

Email or call Suncoast (or your local dealer) and give them your VIN - they'll be able to tell you the part number of the front spoiler lip that was originally on your car.

I believe the primer on this one at Suncoast is black, not a gray primer.

If you're trying to "fix" your existing spoiler - see post #1 here:

There isn't one. All the new ones come primed. Just spray with SEM trim black or have a shop do it. I sprayed myself and touch it up as it gets knicks. NBD.

Same. I've touched it up twice in the last two years.. going to be doing it again for the spring refresh. no biggie. takes me maybe an hour total including taking it off, sanding it down a little, spraying it with 2 coats (15 minutes between coats) and putting it back (after some dry time). looks great each time.

also my local dealer wanted $780 for the lip, then i showed them the one on suncoast and they price matched it. It actually came out cheaper that way since i only paid tax instead of shipping which was less.

skip the plastidip on parts like this. It will be sandblasted off. Even worse than wheels that chip in a few months. SEM looks better too IMO

Thanks guys!

Mine is cracked in half, so was trying to find one that didn't need paint, car is black anyways. Dealer has the part # for the primed one, insurance is paying for it so was trying to find part number for one that doesn't need paint.

Last time I had a front lip painted it lasted about a week before hitting a cement parking stop...

I don't even take mine off. Just spend 15 minutes carefully masking the bumper above the lip, drape the hood and the front quarter panels with an old bed sheet for overspray, sand the bottom of it and then spray it with a $4 bottle of satin black from Home Depot. Looks brand new. Like you I do this maybe once a year.

Does anyone have the part number for the two screws on both sides that secure them a bit? I lost mine last time I refreshed and never got new ones.
