Supposedly not at all I would imagine. They said nothing was used from the 5th gen at all except I think the bow tie???(could be wrong about that), so I'm going to say almost nothing will be interchangeable... But we shall see when they start being delivered and people try

Doubt it, might be better asking in the Camaro6 forum.

I'm interested to see if at least the bumper will. I wouldn't mind having better airflow.

I'd say absolutely not just bolt up. Higher crash guard location,4 angles to the front rather than 2, hood profile etc etc.
BUT, as someone who fitted a 5th gen front fascia to an 83 el camino, things are possible to those with skill. Thermo elastomeric olefin plastics can be hot air welded ( best results) reshaped with heat & home made forms, etc. I do predict that someone in the aftermarket will make a 6th gen fascia/ 5th gen kit which would have to include some type of headlights to go with. Obviously wouldn't be cheap though & bumper quality likely wouldn't be great. I'll hopefully start my 6th gen fascia to 83 el camino project soon, starting with foam shaping & building completely from scratch. I may post some in progress pics here, but many on this site are pretty closed minded, so not sure if I'll bother. |

No, they absolutely will not bolt up. None of the body parts are interchangeable. As stated above, the only carry over parts from a 5th gen reused on a 6th gen are the rear bowtie and the rear SS emblem.

It's a different platform, so I'd think no. If you wanted the Gen 6 look on your 5th generation I'm sure you could have it fabricated to use the 6th ten front end. Just be a lot of money and looks wise you'd come out with something that kind of looks like the TF4 Bumblebee car.
