Ok, for those who still think that the RS package has anything to do with the front bumper... NO. The V6 has it's front and the SS has it's front. Aside from the headlights and badge, the RS package changes nothing about the front end.

this


also if anyone wants to trade thier victory red v6 front end for an SS front end im willing to trade

Thanks for sharing the split-view: makes it really easy to compare them. I agree with many that they both look good! I don't have any problem with the more aggressive lower fascia on the SS, but I like the lines of the V6 fascia also. My only problem is with the scoop/slot in the SS fascia. And I don't hate it because it is non-functional. I hate it because it will detract from hood stripes on the car. Either GM will stop the stripes before the scoop (which won't look as good as longer stripes) or the scoop will cut across the hood stripes (interrupting the look and detracting from the stripes). And putting the scoop in the front fascia makes it more of a problem than if it was in the hood itself. The aftermarket may offer some cool hoods with functional scoops, and the V6 Camaro owners may love them. But any aftermarket hood with a nice scoop built in would look pretty silly perched behind that SS front fascia with that "mail slot" already there. I can see why headpunter is already asking if anyone will trade their victory red V6 front fascia for his victory red SS fascia.

Check out the bumblebee photos from Indy. I thought they did a good job with the stripes and the scoop.
