Would you do this to your camaro?

Greetings fellow Camaro-ians!
I haven't been on for quite a while because I've been going through some health problems. All is good now, I hope! So I'm back to earth and I'm doing all the mods soon. I found this front bumper (new transformers edition) and I really like it to be honest. Would you install it? Do you think it's a good idea and is it worth the price? Would be thankful for some thoughts!

Would look better with a full kit, but I think it looks pretty cool.

EDIT: after further attention to the site, I don't know if it's worth 1400 USD. Also, I didn't notice the scoop before. Personally after my own review, I don't really like it at all. But hey if you think it's worth it, and you like the look, then more power to ya bud go ahead and do it.

That makes the front end look a little over-styled and busy if you ask me. I've always preferred a simple elegance look when it comes to styling, though. I'm also not a big fan of non-functional scoops. $1200 seems a little steep for a bumper, too. Ultimately, it depends on your own personal taste. Some people will love that, others will hate it.

Just curious, would you have to sacrifice your fog lights for that, or are they recessed back in the scoops?

ASC Composite T2 on my car.

I have the T2 facia on my car. You can buy the full bumper but it's posible to purchase the 2 ports and install it yourself or by a local body shop. Ports are around 400,00$.

There is a possibility to add DRL or LED's. ACS might offer new lights soon.

As for the ports, they are functional. Mine are painted car color.

Here's mine with the spliiter installed also.

If you need prices, contact your reseller and get all details.

I might be biased, but I definitely think it's worth the price

Clue: look for "my SLP ZL585" on here...

The standard fog/DR lights can be reused.

Personally I'm waiting for an update from ACS to get LEDs, and smaller lights, just like the movie Bee...

Looks a little too aggressive...I would go with the "Complete T3 fascia" below, w/o splitter, I think it accentuates an SS look nicely.

Man, If you can order the ports and install it then I wouldn't have to get the full front bumper?! :O I have one question though? Is it exactly the same if I just install the ports? Any difference? Do you have to cut something for the ports to fit? I would really appreciate some info about it?
Thanks guys for your opinions! I think it's a bit too much yeah but I kinda really like it.

I'd rock the ports, but they'd have to be color matched with small projector DRL's. Oh ya, that would totally be a take my money! Moment.
