There was the Power Group, who are all about performance and going faster.

There was the Cosmetic Group, who are all about making their cars look good with lighting, paint, and accessories.

Can't really remember the other ones..

Me, I wouldn't bother. Id rather get something that will increase performance for that price tag of the bumper conversions. I like the Heritage grill, and plan to get one at some point.

Christian and Wayne, your cars look badass.

Thanks chris..

ZL1 front is the way to go...

I am pretty partial to the stock SS front bumper with a Heritage grille myself. Cheap (err, relatively...I had my GFX painted to match at the same time) compared to a whole front end, but still makes a great visual statement. Anything is better than the stock hunk of gray plastic!

Nice ABM looks a little like mine. I agree, And factory GFX is the icing on the cake! I need to get my heritage painted soon so I can install it.

The 5th ZL1 front end was my choice and still is. More aggressive look and bolts right onto 10-13's. Easy, albeit pricey, swap.

I like the SS stock front end (pre and post refresh), and I even like the 6th ZL1 version for the 5th's. But this front end is my favorite. Felt like a new car after I installed it... just knowing its there feels good.

Seen this one ?

Innovation Retrokits has the '69 RS front with working headlights. Talk to Dan Fairbanks. It's plug.n.play for our cars. My '15 RS is colored Red Hot and I'm looking to do it once my VA settlement check comes in.

You must be hoping for a big VA back payment paycheck lol...it's pretty cool ..they should make that kit retrofit for the 6th gen Camaro as well

rozarioorlan · 06-27-2019, 08:06 PM

Just for the looks alone, I went with the ZL1 bumper with 6th gen style head lights. It was somewhat pricey but absolutely changed the look and it gets tons of compliments. Direct easy swap. Not the best photo but you get the idea!
