A quick question... ZL1 bumper

So I'm looking into getting a ZL1 bumper and was just curious if this is all I need or if this is just something that I need as well as the actual bumper.

I'd get it from Gary's Custom! Comes with everything but the upper grille I believe.

Actually not a bad idea. I mean it's just over 1400 painted and shipped, which is a lot of money, but that's about how much they go for. Probably gonna save up and just go for a bunch of ZL1 parts and order them all from him!

The one thing that most overlook when doing the conversion is the impact attenuator. The stock SS one will need to either be trimmed to fit or replaced with a ZL1 version. Everything else bolts right up.

Autosource went kaput halfway through their groupbuy about 9 months ago. I have their bumper. It did not have the absorber.

When you bought it, do you have to paint the splitter or no?

The one from Gen5diy looks expensive! It says $1,180 and I haven't even added any of the options like lower grille or fog light bezel...
