SS bumper looks sooooo european. Thus, RS, by far

I like the SS bumper. But I don't like the non-functional slot on top. So I guess I like the top half of the RS & the bottom half of the SS...

I prefer the look of the SS, it has a more aggressive look to it.

[QUOTE=ihc95;93464]I've read many opinions stating the SS bumper is better looking than the RS and vice versa. I just want to know what the majority thinks. I personally think the RS bumper is much better looking because the SS bumper gives the car a hollow European look. I dont know about you but I want a modern American musclecar look, which is exactly what the RS bumper gives you.[QUOTE/]

I'm thinking the SS was done the way it is for more front downforce. that lip will act as a splitter and provide less lift at the front of the car. i personally think they did this well with out going to the NASCAR splitter on the front...

I'm on the fence; therefore, i'm not voting lol

The RS bumper just looks so much cleaner, that's why it got my vote.

Holy Crap! The "Chubby Cheeks" SS Bumper is losing ground!!!!

How can this be? The "Landslide Victory" is evaporating!

I like the SS, but i would want the bottom grill of the RS on it.

The SS bumper is mean,but the RS get it done for me.

playhard67 · 02-22-2009, 10:43 PM

umm.. the RS does not have it's own bumper. Either it's a V6 bumper (no side humps) or a V8 (side humps). This is an old Poll when the bumpers were no yet defined.
