Ok today is the second day on the Westside of El Paso, TX that Ive seen a guy that has the bumblebee front bumper. His car is rally yellow, not sure if its an SS and has black rallys. The 1st time I saw the car I thought I was seening things, but today I was clearly awake and my girlfriend was riding with me and saw it also. Not an anomaly or abberation.

Who the hell has this bumper, where can I buy it, and how much is it!??? El Paso, unfortunately, is one of the last places that see new things (fashion, cars, stores etc.) so where's the bumper at? Why does this guy have one of the only camaros I've seen with the legit bumper - foglights and all? I'm not hating on his car, I love it, I'm hating on the fact that this car has been on the road for so long and I've only seen 1 car (in person or on this forum) with probably the most recognizable and wanted bumper. WTF?

Dude with the bumblebee, if you're a forum member, your car is badass.

I saw that car up close at a bar on mesa... the bumper is nothing but a couple of black decals that make the "appearance" of the ROTF bumper

Seriously? Lol the bumper looked legit while driving by. I saw the sun make a shadow effect on the foglight ports. If its a fake (decals) I'll eat my words. Thanks j.

Yup yup... just a decal.... looks good from far but up close it kinda makes you think "POS" except for the fact that its a camaro... so with that, no, it's not a POS but i would have rather saw a true ROTF bumper

See the attached comparison image. The Transformers 2 Bumblebee "bumper" is the LT/LS fascia with the bottom lip painted black matching the lower grill. Also, the inside lip of the upper grill is painted black. The only thing different is the ground effects, which are similar to the GM ground effects but curve the the fascia a little better. The only things significantly different are the fog lights.

So if you want to have the TF2 bumblebee effect, either paint the two spots black that have green arrows on the attached image, or buy high quality black vinyl and have a shop put it on for you. I know Ridergraphix sells the grill lip portion but I don't think he has the lower grill portion in vinyl.

i wish someone made the lower grill portion. i bought a roll of vinyl and will try to do this myself.
