WARNING!!!!

DO NOT buy from GMpartsdirect.com, I went to my dealer today to look into ordering the part and the guy there told me GMPD is run out of some random Cadillac dealership, and sometimes has the wrong parts listed. Also, the part number posted here in this thread is the same as for the stock honeycomb grille!! Also other sites that offer new GM parts are most likely incorrect, and could just be a stock warehouse that sell parts.

When I did get from the guy at the parts section is that there might be a possible set of colors that you can get the Z Spec grille in, he wasn't sure exactly, but the "special grill" part was listed with numerous colors ranging from blue/gold/red/gray/gold/etc. Now that might just be car color, or it might be grille color, he wasn't sure since there wasn't any more information. However, the Z Spec grille is in fact $300 ordered directly through the dealership, and since they have the same part number that "sale" might be for the honeycomb grill, not the Z Spec. So BE CAREFUL.
 
I did this the easy way smurf. I got a vin from a spring special edition and got the part number from that. I got the same info you got though.

And yes, painting it was $80. But tungsten would look good on my silver car.

So are you saying never order anything from GMPD or just don't order this z spec grille from them? I've always wondered about GMPD and if they were legit...anybody know if they are the real deal?

I'd say never order from them unless you know the part is the actual one you want. Its generally correct, but they have been known to be wrong every now and then.

Are all their products brand new and Chevy/GM licensed? And if they make a mistake, will they do returns? Do their products carry any type of warranty?

Like I was thinking about maybe getting the LTZ rims from them if I didn't want to go the way of internet sites selling the refurbished ones. Would that be a good idea?

No idea, you would have to contact them. All I was told about them was that they have been known to mess up orders on occasion in the past or having the wrong parts listed under wrong numbers on their site.
 
There is nothing wrong with GMPD ive ordered from them multiple times for both my Duramax's and never had a problem! If you want to be sure about the part # then go down to your local dealership and get it from them then order from GMPD! Yes they are a Cadillac dealership but that should make you feel better as the parts have all been genuine in my experience! Just my $. 02
 
You can't order it yet. I tried. I have the part numbers for all of the colors. But there is a note in the computer that says if you place an order for it, it will be cancelled.

It's listed as an dealer installed option that you can order for the 2014 Cruze.

According to Chevy's website.
Correct, but when you go to order it from the parts department, there is a note in the computer listed under the grille that says if you order it, the order will be cancelled because its not yet available for individual sale. They come dealer installed on the 2013 Spring Special Edition Cruzes, but there isnt yet a way to order them by themselves, according to the parts computer.
 
order any color directly from gm accessories via web. all colors come prepainted. 8 colors. Grille landing page
You can catch them on ebay for less but you would have to settle for the wrong color if you don't recycle your chrome trim. Summit White seems to be the popular $200 grille whenever I try for Black Granite.
