The "borrowed" piece does not have to be perfect but just good enough to be a base to build on top of. The shop will then build on top using the bumper repair filler until they have the shape perfect.

that's exactly what i've been planning on doing, too

Then, while they are

you speed away and leave them in a cloud of smoke

Ha, wow... that was absurd. Sorry

HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

So you want your V6 Camaro to look like an SS? Why?

Because he lives in a free country? Isn't that good enough?

I still think the v6 car looks better because of the fog lights alone. The openings on the SS's a little too large IMO.

The front ends really caused that much controversy? That seems like an even sillier thing to get upset about than ambient lighting.

Come on, now... this is Camaro5! There is always at least one controversy going on at any given time... where do you think all of the excitement comes from?

Let's see... B-pillar, side mirrors, fuel door placement, front fascia, no blue SS, production delay, plastic dash, CGM, ambient lighting, price increase, AVIS, brembo weights... that's all just quickly off the top of my head... I'm sure I missed some

Thought I could contribute a little.

To be honest, I didn't really start to scrutinize the front until after I ordered the car. I really thought the body style was exactly the same. It wasn't until after I joined this forum and people were mentioning the mail slot, is when I saw the difference. I love both styles, I guess because the difference is subtle. If I could get all the options I wanted and then have a choice of body style. I would probably lean toward the V6 style with the smooth front. But what really matters, I'm getting a Camaro!!!!! :5thgenvert:

I actually prefer the appearance of the SS over the LT's in every aspect.

There is nothing contraversial about it. People just have preferences.
