Summary
This service bulletin provides information for dealers/technicians on a customer commenting on seeing a yellow tint appearance to hood and engine
cover’s exposed carbon fiber parts.
Condition
Some customers may comment the exposed carbon fiber engine appearance panels for the C8 generation vehicles, or the ZR1 exposed carbon fiber hood parts appear to have a yellow tint appearance when compared to other exposed carbon fiber parts.
Cause
The cause of the condition may be that the carbon fiber hood and engine cover use a different impregnated carbon fiber resin, which is more heat resistant. The different resin may cause a color shift; and the lighting source and direction of view will sometimes highlight this color shift.
Correction
There is no problem with the paint application on these carbon fiber parts, and NO repair attempts should be made to change the color of the parts.
