I’m curious as to whether the current taillights will swap into the 19s. Those tailights are aweful imo, and the 16-18 ones are much better looking (especially the dark ones). The shape looks very similar.

Confirms orange crush for 2019, which is pretty exciting. The V6/4CYl front looks better then the SS front by a landslide.

Tail lamps will most likely swap, but you will need the bumper too.

I get that, but the 5th gen 1LE uses the SS brakes and they were painted red for the 1LE package.

And?

That doesnt mean Chevy can’t paint the calipers.

This way the SS 1LE is more special.

Seriously, they are using the standard SS brakes and suspension -as is- for the V6 and turbo 1LE packages. Assume reduced manufacturing complexity is the goal and is also why we see standardization and overlap of other items across models. ..like cooling...for instance
