Looks great, how will you keep those cut edges from rusting and then rusting under the paint of the hood? Paint the edges?

The hoods on our Camaro's are made out of Aluminum . They don't rust they corrode . The exposed edge should be treated with a clear iridite or paint . I didn't see the picture that you're talking about .

Any issues attaching it to the RS bumper? I have always heard it would not fit, but here it is...

That will give others lots of hope who had been asking. Great job man!

I had someone hit me last year too in a parking lot, enough to warrant replacing the front clip and then 2 days later before I could even get it in to the bodyshop I got hit again on the driver side door, again in a parking lot lol. I was so pissed. But when it was all over I looked back and thot well at least I got a new front end minus all the stone chips and a new driver side door. I hope yours turns out the same and there are no complications, but I feel your frustration!
It occurred to me I never responded to your post. Thank you for your concern. Yes... I am trying to keep positive, and I am happy the work is underway. I feel it's at a good shop. My original choice couldn't even get me scheduled until Sept!, so I am crossing my fingers. I have new wheels on order, and some Big Worm graphics to put o so I am hoping it will be better than ever.

But, it is a major bummer to be without my car during the nicest two weeks of summer so far... Summer is short up/over here!

It wasn't a perfect fit but you can definitely get it done and get it to look mean, just make sure you get it really bolted down and you'll be good!
