SS front bumper on a LS? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

FutureCamaroOwner · 12-20-2009, 12:10 AM

Hey guys,
I am planning on buying the SS front bumper ($299) and having it installed on my LS? I am planning on buying the LS emblems to put on the back of my car. I just cant get over how sexy the car looks with the mail slot. Whats your thoughts? All comments welcome

no the the SS bumper has a slightly different design, looks a lot meaner imo

I prefer the front fascia of the SS bumper, but I don't like the mail slot as much as having no mail slot.

SLP sells a block out panel for the mail slot if you want to cover it up.

Slight differences in the lower grill opening, and lower surface..........and the mail slot.

When they first released the shots of the fascia with the mail slot i thought it was too much, and didn't like it. I have now come to love it, and the way it breaks up the front. The v6 fascia almost seems too flat to me now, even though that's the one i fell in love with in the beginning. (My biased opinion.)

I like that you are going to put the LS badge on the back, means you arn't trying to be an SS, you truely like the look.

I was always curious to see what the mail slot would look like with the lower v6 front fascia...it would have to be a custom job because well the mail slot is attached to the whole front fascia on the ss

I prefer the V6 slot less look myself.

I am considering the upcoming heritage grill though...tough decision.
