CGM Owners Unite!

What's up CGM owners!

I'm in major need of your guys help! My current v6 bumper is falling apart pretty badly. The bumper is completely covered in rock chips because I travel a lot and both of the sides where it joins to the fenders have broken so it sticks out. I currently have the money to replace it so I have decided to go ahead and replace it with something better. That being the case, I have no idea what route to go. I either want a zl1 bumper or an SS bumper with the mailslot filled in, probably some ports, and a splitter.. That being said, I know there are tons of options out there so I would like to see what you've done with yours. So please post your bumper configurations please!

Btw, yes I've learned from my mistakes this time and I will be putting a clear bra over the new bumper.

Thanks in advance guys!

I think it also depends on if you have any "splitters" in mind you may want to install. If not, go ZL1. If you have an idea of what the front will look like with a specific splitter, go V8. It's all in what you want the car to look like, once you are done (which we never are).

Regardless of what path I go, the mailslot will be gone.

My problem is I have no idea what I want mine to look like in the end. I just want it to be aggressive and menacing lol. I love the way your car looks hrpiii.

I personally think you have the best looking v6 CGM. It looks so different with the 3d carbon splitter you put on. Everytime I see your car, I fall in love with CGM again

I went SS since it was cheaper for me but i love the ZL1 front and with the new option it is super, i would have done that. Still might do it. Look here http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=223547
